length of travel assignments

Hi!

In my experience, travel assignments are initially contracted for a specific period of time 4, 8, 13, or 26 weeks. I have always been asked to extend, and have been able to set up extensions to suit my needs.

When the assignment had a bonus at contract end, it was pro-rated, or eliminated, if the extension was not another 13 weeks.

Ask your recruiter to research extensions at the hospitals you are applying with, I bet you'll find many very happy to keep you as long as you can stay.

Good luck,

Roxanne
