I got a raise after I passed boards, which went along with getting off orientation (some confidence in my NCM there... the first day back after taking boards I was scheduled on my own).
Our raise schedule is:
Hire
Boards
18 months
5 years
with intermittent small (2%) raises, usually annually. And the time is based on employment at the hospital, so my year as an SNA counted towards my 18 months, and after 6 months of being an RN, in Indiana, I was making $25 and change without differential.
It depends on what was discussed when they hired you. The first hospital that I worked with hired me as a new grad before, and put me on orientation for about two months. When the two months was up, it was also time for all the RNs in that place to get a raise-----so they included me----but I didn't ask for it-----that was what HR promised me when they hired me.

I just got off of orientation a month ago and thought I'd get a slight raise. I still am making $19.20 / hour. Will I have to wait a year to have an increase?
