With 11 million job positions unfilled in the tight U.S. labor market, one profession is getting a particularly big bump in wages: recruiting.

Adjusted for inflation, salaries offered to recruiters jumped by 14% from last year, according to an analysis of job postings in large metropolitan areas compiled by Revelio Labs. Other occupations that saw large gains in real wages include cleaners, restaurant managers and web developers.
