July 9, 2010, Newsletter Issue #56: Job Offers: More Than Money

Tip of the Week

When you are considering a possible offer for your next job, keep in mind that there is more to compensation than just your physician salary. It’s important to know the average salary for a physician in your field, so you have an idea of what to expect. But remember that a job compensation package includes more than the money you make.

That doesn’t mean that money doesn’t matter. Recent survey results confirm that salary is the most important factor in considering a job for the majority of job seekers. But when you consider a physician job opportunity, consider other factors such as health benefits, a retirement plan, vacation, and the option to work part-time.

A specialized physician staffing agency can be helpful if you are trying to find out more about a certain physician specialty salary in a particular part of the country, and how it compares in terms of cost of living to similar physician salaries elsewhere.
