The DOL publishes new filings quarterly. One email per release, nothing else.

Prevailing wage levels I through IV reflect the experience and responsibility the employer attested to, not seniority titles. A level I filing is an entry-level determination; level IV is fully competent and independent. Comparing across levels explains much of the spread between the 25th and 90th percentile above.
