Specializes in clinical pathways - ED, home infusion, IT, lab.

I'm bummed & stunned NO ONE has given you any responses... I've started a new thread in general discussion area (about Chicago nursing hire wages) & nothing so far.

Any luck with offers or ideas on what the pay is now? I'm wondering if we've missed the June "frenzy" of hiring ?

I am curious as to the amounts of shift differential, weekend rates and whether or not there is the chance for overtime at area hospitals.

I know at UIC, the starting pay for new grads is $27.48 for day shift ($57,141/year). There is a $4/hour differential for nights and an additional $5 differential for weekends. I was told that they love new grads...unlike many suburban hospitals who only take them if the job listing specifically states that the position is for a new grad. Good Luck....

Yes UIC loves new grads, I use to work there as a Student Nurse Externship.

They are not hiring at this moment just like any other hospitals in the Chicagoland area.

I heard they might start hiring in October.
