Nurse informatics salary

[Incognito Escondido]

Hello everyone, 

What should my expectations be salary wise if I get hired as a nurse specialist with no experience in that role. I live in Miami with 7 years of experience as a nurse, 4 of those in ambulatory care which is what they're looking for. Also bilingual which for some reason is something they're also looking for. I'm finishing my masters degree in nurse informatics ,but I know that doesn't really matter if you have no experience. I currently make 75-78k a year.

Miami---From my past experience, which is about 5 years ago, hospitals in that area always were low balling in salary, even with experience. 

The other issue happening now is, obviously, a saturated market. I do consulting and only reason I have not gone back to a full-time job is because of the lower salaries being offered by hospitals.  I would have said that maybe to start out 85k would be a good base salary for someone starting out, but what I'm seeing is, hospitals low balling candidates because the supply of "analysts" is too much at the moment. And yes, given that it is Miami, I thought salaries would be higher in that area, but I found out they weren't.  

I would say, get the interviews, and see what the offers are. I know, not much of an advice, but right now the market is....beyond saturated to say the least, unless you're in the revenue cycle space.
