Frequently asked questions about Nurse Practitioner jobs

How many nurse practitioner jobs are listed right now?

There are currently 776 nurse practitioner and APRN jobs listed, spanning states, specialties, and work settings. Listings are updated daily. New roles are added and expired postings are removed.

What is the median nurse practitioner salary?

Nurse Practitioners earn a median annual wage of $132,300 (BLS OEWS, Nurse Practitioners (29-1171), median annual wage, May 2025). Actual pay varies with specialty, practice setting, experience, and state. Many listings include posted salary ranges, and the salary guide breaks pay down state by state.

How fast is demand for nurse practitioners growing?

The BLS projects 41% employment growth for nurse practitioners from 2025 to 2035 (BLS Employment Projections, Nurse Practitioners (2025 to 2035)), which places the role among the fastest-growing occupations in the United States.

Where can nurse practitioners practice independently?

It depends on each state's rules, not only on its classification. The AANP State Practice Environment classifies 27 states + DC as Full Practice, where state law lets nurse practitioners evaluate patients, diagnose, order and interpret diagnostic tests, and initiate and manage treatments, including prescribing medications and controlled substances, under the exclusive licensure authority of the state board of nursing. Several of those states first require a transition period of collaborative or supervised practice, and several Reduced and Restricted Practice states offer a route out of their agreement after a set amount of experience. The Full Practice Authority guide summarizes each state's requirement, and browsing jobs by state shows local practice environments.

Which specialties and job types can I browse?

Categories with their own page of current openings include specialties such as family practice, pediatric, women's health and psychiatric mental health; work settings such as remote, telehealth, inpatient and outpatient; and job types such as full-time, part-time, contract and per diem. The filters on this page narrow the board by specialty, work setting, job type and location.
