What the Sales Representative family covers

New Jersey classifies Sales Representative as a 3-level series holding 6 separate title codes. Every title in it is a state title, so the employer is a state department, commission or authority rather than a county or municipality.

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. Several of them, particularly the government representative series, are unclassified catch-alls used across many departments for very different jobs, so the title tells you less about the work than usual. Salary comparisons across agencies are correspondingly unreliable for that group.

The ladder, ordered by pay

Sorted by pay instead of by title number, the Sales Representative family stacks up as follows. Here the numbering happens to agree with the pay order, which is not guaranteed elsewhere in New Jersey's plan.

The distance from the bottom of Sales Representative 1 State Lottery to the top of Sales Representative 3 State Lottery is $46,363, an increase of about 91% over the entry minimum.

Across the 6 titles we have parsed, the education requirements read as a master's degree on 3 of them and a bachelor's degree on 3 of them. Stated experience runs from 1 year at the lowest rung to 3 at the highest, which is the main thing separating one level from the next.

State payroll only, deduplicated by payroll title; local employers file separately, so a family with local codes looks smaller here than it is. How this is counted.
