Not sure what section I should post this in.
I am looking for a GIS job and have a potential lead. The job is in the Las Vegas area. It would be doing work primarily in remote sensing, and some GIS too. The potential employer has asked what my pay requirements are, but I am not sure what I should say. Looking at the public sector pay scale for the area, it is very good.About the same as Los Angeles. I see public sector entry level jobs generally starting around 50,000 to as high as 62,000. The lowest paying ones would be around 45,000. Of course these all have excellent benefits.
Should I be asking for the same pay? Should I expect to make more or less in the private sector? There currently are not many private sector jobs listed for the state of Nevada, and they generally never say what the pay is.
My qualifications are:
MS in GIS
BA in Physical Geography
GIS certificate (24 units of GIS/Remote Sensing coursework)
2 months as a GIS intern
Previous career as a commercial plumber
Journey-Level plumber license
c-36 plumbing contractor license
Supervise up to 10 employees etc.
