New grad salaries

Published

Hi i was just curious about salaries for new grads. I have a class mate who is moving to Texas I think she will be working at teh houston medical center or something like that. Anyways she said that they are starting her out at $25 an hour. Is this an accurate amount for a new grad to make in this area.

Just an FYI, I think the nurse recru. and I believe it is on the website that they have an interview date which is at teh end of March. She told me that they will interview everyone that day and you will know in two weeks if you were selected. She also said if you waited, they best slots might be filled and that they would have positions, but probley in only med surg. Because you expressed an interest with ICU, you might want to double chech dates so you're not left out. The way it was explained to me was this one day in March was when they did all the hiring for the summer intern programs and that your application needs to be complete. If I'm wrong, I apologize,but I would really check the dates so you're not excluded from the intern program you want.

No your right about the interview day where everyone comes at the same time, but she told me since i am not in east tn right now i can make an appointment to get interviewed before then because she thought it might intewrfere with my classes. I think she did this cause most people applying are coming from the knoxville area andi am in middle tennessee going to school. I think it scheduled around UT's and other knoxville area colleges spring break too.
