H-1B wage level

Based on the DOL prevailing wage for this occupation and worksite, a base salary of $65,749 would place this position at wage Level II. That figure is within the posted range, and I'd like to target it. This role classifies under "Market Research Analysts and Marketing Specialists" for prevailing-wage purposes.
