So I’m a fresh new grad (Miami, FL based OT) starting at an orthopedic outpatient clinic soon, they offered me $40 an hour for a full time position. Benefits include health and dental, no 401k.
Is this a decent rate for a new grad or did I realistically get low balled? I knew a COTA once that made $40/hr at a different clinic with a year of experience.
Will this be temporary until I get a bit more of experience on my hands? I know peds gets paid a bit more hourly but the cons include cancellations and no benefits.
What is your rate / setting / years of experience as an OT? Any advice?
