Hi everyone! For those of you working in the San Jose / Bay Area as a newly licensed SLP (just completed your CF), I’d love to hear about your current pay.
I recently finished my CF and have about 2 years of internship/clinical experience. I’m also bilingual (Spanish/English), and I’m curious how much (if at all) that has impacted pay in this area.
Are you working salaried or hourly? And in what setting (school, clinic, private practice, hospital, etc.)?
If you’re open to sharing, it would be super helpful to know:
Location (San Jose, surrounding Bay Area, etc.)
Setting
Pay (hourly or salary)
Experience level (e.g., newly licensed, 1–2 years, etc.)
Whether bilingual skills impacted your rate
It’s been really hard to find transparent, up to date info, especially specific to the Bay Area, so I’d really appreciate any insight. Thank you! 🫶🏽
