Advice needed for the following companies

I started with Cross Country and I had two good assignments with them, my recruiter was decent enough. But then there was always a problem of having desireable locations to go to and she couldn't come through for me, and she didn't start looking for my next assignment till the last minute and it was unnerving. She also was responsible for a lot of other travellers and I felt that she didn't have my best interest in mind. The housing was very nice in Seattle where they put me, I loved my apt. and neighbors. I think with whoever you take a contract with there are pros and cons, minor issues. Good luck with whoever you choose!

Recruiter's name removed.

Be very careful when choosing a travel company. I have worked for Faststaff in the past and have been very happy with them. Once you go on your first travel assignment you will be able to ask other travelers about their companies and that is the best way to find a good company. I have heard a few people complain about faststaff but there are some unhappy travelers around that aren't satisfied with any company. You will know them immediately....When you start researching companies you are going to feel like you are dealing with used car salesmen. Stay clear of them. They will lie. Go with a company that tells you up front what you will be making and no package deals. Faststaff is very good about this. They are one of the highest paying companies out there. Hope this helped.
