What is the top-paying job in the USA? |
in any field, but mostly medical I believe the highest paid person in the United States is still J. RAYMOND ELLIOTT Chairman, president & CEO of Zimmer Holdings, his entire compensation package is around $17Million, business Orthopedic products. While most people believe tha physicians are the the highest paid medical field workers, it is in reality actually in sales. Sorry about the misunderstanding. Top paying jobs in the US are : Engineer-Electrical, Chemical, Structural Architech, Naonotech In the medical field, Highest paid physicians are Urologist, Neurosurgery.. Physician Assistants/Nurse Practioner--are in very high demand and salaries start at $80,000 and with expericence can be as high as $200,000. Nurses that are specialized (licensed in special field) make the higher salaries that just 2 yr RN. If they are in administration and specialized nurses it is not unusal to see salaries of $125,000. It is not uncommon for even a begining 2 yr RN to get a salary of $18.00 per hour. In the field of Radiology--individuals trained/licensed to perform PET and MRI scans are paid the hightest, not uncommon to see salaries of $35/hr. Medical Technologist--individuals that perform lab test are some of the lowest paid health care workers, often making less then high school teachers. Pharmacist, not pharmacy techs, are in high demand and salaries right out of school and licensed start at $20-$25/hr.
