$26/hr RN Telemetry in San ANtonio,TX

Published

Hey all!

I got a job offer here in San ANtonio as a RN - Telemetry Floor. I am a foreign graduate and had 3 years of experience abroad. Is $26 per hour a reasonable rate? This would be my first job here in Texas and I really don't have an idea about the appropriate rates for RNs.

Thanks all! :)

Yes, that wage seems reasonable for San Antonio...

New grads in SA are paid in the $19 to $23 range hourly, so an offer of $26/hour to a nurse with three years of experience is within the realm of possibilities.

Thank you ma'am... í ½í¸„ Coz a friend of mine who had been working here for years said my starting rate should be atleast $29-32. And $26 is for a newly graduate. Oh well, maybe it depends on facilities. I'm already excited to accept this job offer, just a bit hesitant about the pay.

FYI, San Antonio salaries are the lower than other Texas metro areas - for all professions.
