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.

I have seen hospitals that start you off with 26 plus 4 dollars diff.

I work in the Philly area; 40 hour night shift. When I started as a GN, I made about 28/hr plus 20% shift differential. I'm past a year now so that's another dollar increase. With the differential, I've gotten up to about $32/hr.

I don't want to say due to other things I've posted on here and as they say 'it's a small world' and you never know who's looking...so with that being said just know it's in the putnam, westchester area.

Weekends n holidays of course, can't dodge that....Evening usually goes from like 7 - 11 and then from 11- 7 i think you get your night differential I believe, dont quote me 100% tho

thats fine, I didnt think it was a big deal...people post salary's in the forums and feel comfortable doing so bc its anonymous, knowone knows who you are unless of course your username is overtly obvious. no worries, Ill get the info elsewhere, thanks
