Depends on what job you want.
You can earn between anywhere from an hourly gig to a salary around $28,000 and as high $2 million a year if you're one of the state's nearly 65,000 state workers workers or an employee at a New Jersey authority or college.
Tens of thousands of state workers got raises under Gov. Phil Murphy, including 32,000 Communications Workers of America workers and 6,500 from AFSCME.
