Key Factors That Influence Exam Coordinator Salaries

An Exam Coordinator's salary isn't a fixed number. It's shaped by several important factors. Below, we'll explore how your years of experience, geographic location, education and company size can directly affect your earning potential.

How Do Exam Coordinator Salaries Vary from State to State?

Your salary can change significantly depending on where you work. States with a higher cost of living and strong industrial sectors often pay more to attract Exam Coordinators. For example, consider the average annual salaries in these key locations:

  • District of Columbia: $58,421.
  • California: $58,199.
  • Massachusetts: $57,423.

Top Paying Cities for Exam Coordinators

Salaries can also vary between different cities. Major metropolitan areas or cities with a high demand for technicians often offer more competitive pay. Here are a few examples of average annual salaries in different U.S. cities:

  • San Jose: $66,552
  • San Francisco: $65,823
  • Oakland: $64,436

What Skills Can Increase an Exam Coordinator's Salary?

Demanded Skills for the Role:

  • Written Communication (Mentioned in 2.83% Job Postings): Communicating information through written media to educate, inform and influence the target audience.
  • Loan Servicing (Mentioned in 1.3% Job Postings): Loan servicing is the process by which a company (mortgage bank, servicing firm, etc.) collects interest, principal, and escrow payments from a borrower. The vast majority of mortgages are backed by the government or government-sponsored entities (GSEs) through purchase by Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, or Ginnie Mae (which purchases loans insured by the Federal Housing Administration (FHA) or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)). Because GSEs and private loan investors typically do not service the mortgage loans that they purchase, the bank who sells the mortgage will generally retain the right to service the mortgage pursuant to a master servicing agreement. The payments collected by the mortgage servicer are remitted to various parties; distributions typically include paying taxes and insurance from escrowed funds, remitting principal and interest payments to investors holding mortgage-backed securities (or other types of instruments backed by pools of mortgage loans), and remitting fees to mortgage guarantors, trustees, and other third parties providing services. The level of service varies depending on the type of loan and the terms negotiated between the servicer and the investor seeking their services, and may also include activities such as monitoring delinquencies, workouts/ restructurings and executing foreclosures.
  • Claim Reviews (Mentioned in 0.47% Job Postings): A claims review is the process in which the underwriter reviews a claim to assure that it meets a set of standards.
