> Where I'm from(Poland) you always list the salary per month and that's how people talk about it.

Depends on the type of contract. I'm also from Poland and unit I use most often is the daily rate because it's the only reliable way for a contractor to calculate earnings.

Job listings indeed still use monthly, but their understanding of a month is usually "20 workdays", which is obviously off by at least 10%.



Well, if you are a contractor you don't have a salary, strictly speaking.


Over 80% senior job listings are formally contracts around here. It's a popular method of tax optimisation.
