How do humanities doctorates?

Assuming that one holds a doctorate in a field such as Comparative Literature, Religion, History, etc. of a program than a big name school graduate (like Berkeley, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, Chicago, Michigan), what to expect to be paid at a university or college of liberal arts? I know there are plenty of doctors out of work, but in the best programs in the humanities seems that 2 / 3 of students PhD unable to find employment at the time of receiving his doctorate. So I'm thinking specifically about the proportion of graduate students who find employment.

It depends on several factors: most importantly, if you are hired in a school-urban or rural-to poorly funded State University / poorly endowed private university or a good endowed private university – a history department. Religion or department. or in another department. – Ranking (prestige, reputation) of the university in their discipline – The amount of pull the chair is to the administration department of the university city schools will pay more for the higher cost of living associated with their location. schools gifted will pay more because their support for the provision of higher salaries of the faculty. General History (but not always) it pays better than religion or lyres. Departments with a stellar reputation are sometimes better funded than their counterparts in less stellar. Chairs who are owed favors / or aspire to work well a / are highly valued by / administration can sometimes take the salary cap. Depending on the combination of these factors, a starting salary of a teacher recently hired in tenure track, from assistant professor, could range from 35K to 70K. Most often, somewhere in the range of 40-50K is a reasonable expectation. It is best to consult the next (first week of September, I think) salary issue of the Chronicle of Higher Education. Your library (and perhaps even your department) has a subscription. This edition will offer average salaries across all disciplines at all levels in both state and private institutions.
