What the Business Development Representative family covers
Business Development Representative covers 2 title codes arranged into 2 levels of responsibility.
These titles are the state's outward face: press and public information, tourism promotion, economic development, business assistance and the customer service counters at the agencies the public actually deals with.

Salary comparisons across agencies are correspondingly unreliable for that group.
