FAQs

What is the SOC code for Architect?

Which code should a Architect job use?
The code follows the job's duties and requirements, not its title. DOL's National Prevailing Wage Center decides it on the wage request. When employers split a title between codes, the work decides which one fits.

The titles employers typed come from DOL's PERM, prevailing wage and LCA disclosure files (PERM cases decided 2023-10-01 to 2026-06-30; wage requests and LCAs of fiscal years 2024 to 2026).
