I've recently graduate with a BSN and passed boards a few months ago. I've applied to urgent care and got a call today to set up an interview next week. The job description and benefit seems to be pretty good. The problem I'm running into is the pay. Im Bilingual I have 3 years of acute care experience as a CNA and social work BLS certified I live in IOWA dream job: Research or CNS I am a fast learner and every job I've had, I have been promoted and gotten awards for the kind of work I've done. The starting pay is $15.30, I was hoping to make a minimum of $20. Is 15.30 reasonable for the mid west? If I get the job I know I will get my foot in the door and perhaps getting in to something better. What should I do? I have a loving and supporting husband that I don't have to work immediately. I can wait but should I just take it if I get an offer? Or should I wait? This has been the only job I've applied to. What do you think I should do?
