Salary ranges

We already know that a Medical Device Sales Representative can earn between 39,640 ERN and 108,120 ERN on average in Eritrea. This is known as the range in statistics.

If you are earning more than the median salary, that's a good indicator that you are being paid well.

If you're not earning more than the median salary, your objective should be to increase your earnings to be at least as high as the median salary (which you can do by asking for a pay rise, looking for a better paying job, etc).
