Re: Bad credit/credit check
I was a recruiter for a travel nurse agency, and you can tell the agency NO when it comes to a credit check. Most of our nurses crossed it off, and wrote do not give consent for credit check.
If the agency insists, find another one. Unfortunately, many nurses especially travel nurses have credit issues, and now with the economy the way it is, I would not worry about it.
I think the credit issues come from having assignments canceled or too long of time between assignments. Or not getting paid correctly.
Take your time and find as much out about the agency as you can, and remember to keep a safety net to protect yourself.
Good Luck!
