My wife received a tentative offer for an NP position at the VA, which is great news. However, we no have idea how much to expect for salary. The salary range in the job posting is for Title 38 NP I step 1 through NP III step 12, but in the same posting (and every other NP job posting we've seen for the VA) the grade determination description is for Nurse I-III instead.
Does anyone have any idea what the degree/experience levels are for the NP grades so we know roughly what to expect?
I am curious if you used the VA NNEI Scholarship? I am currently using the scholarship and worried they will bump me down to Grade 1 Step one on the APN scale when I graduate which is only 2-3k more a year than I make now. Do they have to keep you at the same grade and step and just move to the APN pay scale?
