Usually a job’s not a dream job unless it’s in your dream place, right? Find out what city suits your style. NursingLink has profiled America’s ten biggest cities to help you find out what the average salaries are in each of the top ten and who the biggest employers are.
In most cities today, healthcare is the biggest employer, responsible for 13% of jobs nationwide (a number that’s growing every year.)
This list of the top employers in each market is just a starting point for getting acquainted with the local employment scene. Check our job search to find more and poke around the state groups in our Community section to connect with NursingLink members. You might also find Network Connections from members in job search results.
Across the country, 42% of healthcare jobs are in doctors’ offices and labs, and 34% are in hospitals. The third biggest employment setting is nursing and residential care facilities. So if you’re looking for a top career in a big city, you’ll want to look much further than the biggest hospitals in town. but you can get started here – get the big picture of big cities now!
