Was wondering if any current residents had any updates on the market this year? Are things looking any better than in years past, or still pretty rough out there?

Talked to some random recruiting company that emailed me by accident; I'm an ACR, RSNA,... member that recently upgraded my status to resident. Anyway, I don't know how truthful this guy is but he was talking to me about people that he recently placed with "7 figure" salaries in Nebraska, "600K" in New Mexico, both for IR, and "300K" starting for general radiologist in a large Midwestern city. Got me pretty pumped.
Your numbers are off. 7 figures do not happen these days, no matter what field you do (rads, ortho, neurosurgery,...) and how much experience you have, unless you are doing business side of medicine which is a different story (I know a psychiatrist who went for hospital manager position and after a huge effort he made it, now as a hospital manager constantly he makes 2 mil a year).
For first year out of education it did not happen even during the golden years of medicine in this country.
Not sure, Everyone from my the class above me have found jobs they are happy with in various subspecialties. I will know more when I get deeper into my job search.
It may help to get the state license of the place u are interested in before hand as many jobs dont want to hire u and wait 6+ months for u to get a license especially in Cali, Texas and Florida
