Where does a salary history go?

On the resume?
Cover letter?
Seperate from resume and cover letter?

Does anyone have any tips about inserting a salary history into a resume or cover letter?

Thank you

Salary "History" goes within the resume.
Salary "Requirements" goes within the cover letter.

You can insert your salary history in your resume if you like. Just put the salary hourly or annually near each job title. However, I feel that it makes the resume too busy unless it is imperative to include your salary for each job. I prefer just mentioning your most recent salary on your cover letter.

The salary/remuneration for a particular job is the market value for a particular profession and designation at the city/town where the office is located. Job postings at websites like Monster, Yahoo HotJobs and Careerbuilder carry information about salaries. The Govt Dept of Labor, (www.bls.gov) Bureau of statistics has information about median salaries for different professions and details of additional compensation offered. Other online resources are salary.com and payscale. Your salary will also depend on your educational qualification and how you handle your career.
