  2. Starting Salary at Oschner New Orleans/West Bank?

    I think you should call HR and they can fill you in about salary info. I'm going to guess that you're experienced, so it varies. Right now, the job market in New Orleans is VERY tight. A lot of hospitals are experiencing budget cuts/ hiring freeze...
