A Carilion HR representative came and talked to us at our school and she told us that they start their new RN grads at $19/hr. That was in October 2010, of course she explained that after a while you get a raise (lol). Best of luck!

The rate the pp quoted sounds right. I have heard that they cut back the new grad rate this past year because there have been a lot of new grads in that area. You can call the HR department and ask to speak witht he new grad recruiter. they will be able to give you the shift diff information.

My experience Carilion pays awful and works you to death.

dollar more for nights and another for icu.

I started there as a new grad got paid 19.00 and 19.25 after I passed my boards. I wasn't clearing a 1000 every two weeks and worked my butt off. When Carilion gives you are raise its in terms of .25/hr and that's like after years.

I'm also not a fan of their computer charting, it was new when I was there and no one knew how to use it and I am a computer programmer.

But on the positive, you can get alot of good experience since they are the only level 1 center in the area.

Raquel8 , Hello,

How long back did u start at Carilion, would the rate still hold the same, and how about working overtime , I heard nurses get a lot of overtime if they wish to

2009, yeah pretty sure I have heard from new grads that it is still the same. But if there is no other job then I would take it but I'd look others places for sure.
