For some reason, it seems taboo to discuss salary in our field. My professors and supervisors to date just avoid the discussion or respond with vague answers. I know what the Department of Labor statistics show, but I'm curious to hear from new graduates (within 5 years) about salaries in the field.
If anyone would be so daring, kindly post the salary and position of a job you know exists or has existed. For example, PhD psychologist, currently 2 years after licensure making $XX at university counseling center doing this and this, full time. If it was in the past, you could post the year as well obviously. Location helps, too.
I'll start. I know of a curent PsyD newly licensed making $50k doing "evals." This is in the southeastern US. And no it's not me.
Also, I'm curious to hear if others are having difficulty finding work and possible reasons (geographic area, specialties, limitations, etc.).
