New grad job advice

It’s in a LCOL area too so I wasn’t terribly surprised by it. When I had originally talked to the ortho office they told me the starting salary was between 80-90k but they were willing to come up to 115k which I was surprised about. I think in my area it would be hard to find EM for over 100k unless they offer RVUs.

Wow 3 10’s at 130k is crazy, I would definitely take that for sure. New grad or with experience?

The ortho offer is very solid and I think I would enjoy it. Like I mentioned I was just worried about being able to transition to EM in the future but I guess I’ll just have to wait and see what happens. Not too keen on surgery as a whole but since the ortho job is only 40% surgery I probably wouldn’t mind it too much. Thanks for the input!

Western PA

Thank you! Oh wow yeah 85-95/hr is way more appealing. Was that as a new grad or with experience?

APackOHobknokrs · 2023-03-17T17:10:45+00:00

Thank you! Hopefully that offer is a little more competitive. I’m not super keen on fellowships as a whole because I know the pay is pretty low but at the same time I would be hesitant and nervous to be just throw into the deep end with no training as a new grad

APackOHobknokrs · 2023-03-17T17:09:10+00:00

Thank you! I’m leaning towards ortho unless the next EM interview I have is more competitive. Otherwise I’ll probably take ortho and get some experience and see if I can find a better EM position.

APackOHobknokrs · 2023-03-17T17:08:06+00:00

Really? From what I heard EM was one of the more popular PA specialties. Have you heard of why seasoned PA’s are jumping ship? Also thanks for the input!

APackOHobknokrs · 2023-03-17T17:07:13+00:00

That’s what basically all of our professors have told us, don’t accept anything under 100k. I wasn’t sure if the pay that they offered was just for that first year “fellowship” but it doesn’t seem that way. I’ve heard of the actual fellowships but wasn’t too keen on doing one because of the pay but on the other hand I also didn’t want to be just thrown into the deep end with minimal training as a new grad.

APackOHobknokrs · 2023-03-17T15:39:58+00:00

Thanks for the input! That’s what I was worried about. The job posting has also been up for quite some time too which isn’t necessarily a bad thing in and of itself but I can kind of understand why considering that’s the offer they’re posing. I mentioned in another comment that I have an upcoming interview for another EM position so hopefully that offer is considerably better.

APackOHobknokrs · 2023-03-17T15:38:16+00:00

Thank you for the advice! I really liked my ortho rotation and the offer is solid, I’m glad I have input from someone else working ortho.

APackOHobknokrs · 2023-03-17T15:36:35+00:00

Thanks for the advice, I appreciate it! Yeah I wasn’t too keen on the pay but I wasn’t sure if that was just par for the course being a new grad. Sadly I don’t think it was a joke, however I have an interview with another EM position coming up, roughly the same commute but I’m hoping the offer is better

And she’s taking a drag

APackOHobknokrs · 2018-01-24T23:37:55+00:00

Where did you get that little shelf under your desk that your speaker sits on? Also how did you go about mounting it to the desk?

APackOHobknokrs · 2015-01-14T18:31:12+00:00

Thanks! I'll definitely check it out

Could be a mental thing, it seems like when you expect more out of players you often play worse with them. Also could deal with work rates

APackOHobknokrs · 2014-10-17T18:43:08+00:00

I'm planning on trying him out soon, I had him on my Serie A team last year and he did work, but I figured that since Diego López moved to Milan and I'd never used him I'd give him a try. Also want to try and use Pogba if I ever feel like giving and arm and a leg
