new job, new pay?

Published

I've been a nurse for about nine years. The last four years, I've been taking travel assignments (from two different travel companies) in rural and urban places where my wage varied wildly according to needs. I'm about to interview for a permanent job in Manhattan. How do I negotiate my pay?

If you're applying for typical hospital bedside positions, they'll probably have a pay scale in place which they may not be willing to deviate from. I'd guess you could try to take whatever base salary they offer and ask for a dollar or two more an hour, but I wouldn't get your hopes up. You may have more success trying to negotiate a signing bonus given that you come with experience.

I was working in NYC, but recently moved. I tried to message you privately but it didn't quite work. If you'd like, message me privately and I can tell you what I know!
