Again, I would never advise it and never talked to a recruiter who would. However, I haven't spoken to them all I guess. A year as an RN is barely a start. Traveling is great, but it's still doing the job of nursing 3-4 days a week. Hope it turns out...

Have you been in contact with a travel agency? Coming from someone that's done local per diem and traveling, 1 year is not a lot of nursing time to start traveling. I've worked with several agencies and I haven't come across any reputable that doesn'...
Here is what I was told.... They can't promise I would never have to go long distances, such as the 1.5 I mentioned, but they try to float others closer first. In short, I'd probably go there on occasion, not regularly. What the position is, would be...
Thanks everyone for the comments and thoughts to ponder and consider. My wife is saying, no way. But I'm interested in hearing the offer. My first thought was, "How many days you guys going to send me 1.5 hours to this facility". Once every couple we...
I have an interview for a regional float position with Kaiser this week. Free insurance for the family and about $12 more an hour would have me banking a lot more money a month. I would save $800 a month in insurance alone, not including the bump in ...

Anyone know about the RN pre employment assessment test? I took it today and thought I got all the questions correct. However, it says I didn't meet retirements and gave me a link to the career section. No score or anything. Anyone know the process i...

Glad I saw this post. Im looking at taking some type of Holistic training and certification. In particular life coaching. My wife is a PT and wanting to do the same thing. We'd like to even open our own practice and build a clientele. I've been a RN...
I was looking at the USVI and was told by Cross Country that they will not hire a first time traveler. Has things changed? I'm a 6 year nurse having done agency full time the last year and I'm ready to travel. Wanted to go to STT but was told I co...
About 3 years ago i was set to go to Alaska with Providence Staffing. I secured my Alaska license, but things didn't work out and i eventually moved. Now here i am again looking to travel to Alaska next spring/summer. I called and talked with the...
First a bit about me.... I'm a full time staff nurse at a hospital i like. However, last month i started Agency work PRN just to make some extra money. Since working 5 Agency shifts, i like it enough to consider going fulltime and quitting my sta...
