It's Good To Be A PD Investigator In California!

The Alameda County Public Defenders office up in Oakland, California is currently hiring for a Public Defender Investigator. You can click here to check out the job announcement on Governmentjobs.com.

Are you curious to know how much Public Defender Investigators make Alameda County? If you were too lazy to click on the link yourself...I'll just show you:

Job Title: INVESTIGATOR, PUBLIC DEFENDER'S OFFICE
Salary: $2,947.20 - $3,540.00 biweekly or $6,385.60 - $7,670.00 monthly


For the math impaired that means a measly $76,627.20 to start with the possibility of topping out at $92,040.00 a year...

OH MY SWEET GEEZUS! THAT IS A SHITLOAD OF CASH!

I would say I was interested in working in Alameda County but I like where I'm at...that and Alameda county is too far away. Hopefully they are able to get some qualified applicants that will be able to earn their keep!

It definitely is good money, but it really does not go as far as one might think, when living in the Bay Area.

Still, it is better than the surrounding agencies. SF starts at 60k and Marin County starts at 70k.

Wow...that is a good chunk of change. I'm beginning to think that maybe a longer commute might actually be worth it!
