Heard of These companies?


Hey, Im a new grad, and am looking into travel nursing in a year. Im just researching companies I may go with which are the best ones. Ive researched enough to know that I expect almost everything to be paid for. I would just like to know what companies are the most accomidating, with the best benefits, and offer a wide variety of locations. I plan on going to California, Texax and Florida. Also good recruiters would be a bonus.

Ive looked at a company called "trustaff" . Has any one dealt with them before? They seem pretty good from what Ive seen on their website. I just dont want to get caught in a trap and get scammed. Also, I am canadian, I dont know how that affects things either.

First, being a Canadian affects things as a traveller, not all companies will deal with immigration.

Minimum requirement for travel is one year for any of the companies now, but many facilities are requiring at least two years of experience in a travel nurse, and some even want five years for some of the specialty areas.

I would not even begin to do a search until you have at least one year of experince, companies will and do change, what is offered now may not be available in two years.

And I have never heard a thing about that company.
