The answer can vary greatly depending on the location of your new job and the facility you intend to work at. Some places pay more of differential for night shift than others.

Good luck on your new career!

We need more information....it could be anywhere from 15$/hr to 50$hr depending on:

Those factors greatly change your income.

Well a clinic is probably not going to have night shift hours. I'm not too familiar with the NY new grad pay, but here in PA, most new grads start at $19-$20/hr, with $1/hr more for working nights.

Not sure how close your area is to NYC, as NYC nurses do make more. On average though, in PA new grads will make $30-$35,000 a year. I will say that many nurses on my floor do make $50-60,000 by working double shifts and overtime.

Actually quite a few hospitals in Chicago start new grads at $24/hr or less. The highest I have seen is around $28/hr plus $2-3 shift diff. and another $2-3 for weekends.
