Reply to comment by Drag_On66 in New Jersey Department of health Information Technology Specialist, how do they determine how much money you get, I have a bachelors degree in computer science and 10yrs experience what salary will that get me? by Drag_On66

If you're interested in staying private sector, insurance companies LOVE their benefits. I'm in software development for insurance and my pay is like fine but I've always had comical amounts of health coverage, great 401k match and like 20 days of PTO.

Every agency has those IT specialist positions, some with different starting salaries. Make sure you browse all agencies to compare. Also, you can apply to IT specialist 2 or 3 position if they are available. You will easily climb up with your experience.
