How Do You Research Salary Ranges And Benefits For A Veterinarian?
The salary range for veterinarians is about $30,000 to $100,000 per year. How much you earn will depend on where you work, your experience and your specialty. Familiarize yourself with the field by accessing official veterinary Web sites like the American Veterinary Medical Association at AVMA.org. Read the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association (JAVMA) online on a regular basis. Contact vets you know for their appraisal of the career and its benefits. Realize that for many vets, being able to work with animals is a major benefit. Investigate a career as a vet for farm animals. The competition is not as strong for vets in rural areas. Remember that vets who own their own practice are responsible for all overhead expenses.
