   Aha! Got it now! Awesome! Thanks! Would the 2nd assignment being a traveling distance from the first one make a difference?

   Thanks NedRN. By why i meant "what's there reason behind it", not a "how come" complain. Thanks for explaining. Googling for information on this part of the law, but I can't find anything. I am sure I'm phrasing it wrong. Any idea how I should word i...

   OK. Two question. Why would the 2nd contract be fully taxed if home is still working away from home? How do you find per diem agencies?

   An 80 bed community hospital or a 500+ bed city hospital? Which would be a better foothold into the travel nurse world for a rookie nurse (zero experience)? P.s. I know one should not start with travel nursing straight out of college. Consider the ab...

   Sunnysandy replied to Sunnysandy's topic in Travel

   Yeah thats how i feel. Is the checklist, which takes up most of the time, supposed to be done before they tell you what hospitals they have open assignments with? Usually they say where they have assignments for a specific specialty with little detai...

10. Request for a ton of info right from the start

    Sunnysandy posted a topic in Travel

    So agencies ask to fill out a lengthy application, and many times sign a consumer report form when you apply, before an interview or submitting you to a hospital. Is this the norm? Should i? I feel this wastes a colossal amount of time since i'm not...

12. Do you list your agency on your resume?

    Sunnysandy replied to Sunnysandy's topic in Travel

    What about the ATS?

13. Do you list your agency on your resume?

    Sunnysandy replied to Sunnysandy's topic in Travel

    I did. Nothing special. They have 2 samples. 1 for experienced nurses - which basically just lists place of work, location, and date. And the other is for fresh graduates. No duties to list like every other resume sample on the interwebs. That got me...

14. Do you list your agency on your resume?

    Sunnysandy replied to Sunnysandy's topic in Travel

    Is that instead of "employment" or "work history"? Also, do you include job description/duties?

15. What is a caseload?

    Sunnysandy replied to Sunnysandy's topic in General Nursing
