I am starting school this month in hopes of becoming a RD. I have done quite a bit of research and It sounds like a great profession, I am truly excited about it! I just want to make sure that I am not being misled.
To any RD' s out there:
Which state do you work in?
What type of setting do you work in- Hospital, school, etc.?
Are you full time or part time?
Did you have trouble finding employment?
Do you generally like your job?
Is the starting salary decent, I have read 40-60,000 depending on location.
Just curious! I hope to work with pregnant women. Pregnancy and nutrition have always been my two passions and I am hoping to combine them and have a job that I really enjoy!
