Specialties Med-Surg

Published

I am a recruiter recently tasked with locating Med/Surg Nurses. I'd really appreciate any advice or insight you could provide.

How would you go about finding your next job? Where do you look - internet, newspaper? What sort of "perks" would make you consider switching jobs, what's important to you? Sign-on bonus, paid time off, child care, tuition reimbursement, facility, location?

If you find this post to be offensive or inappropriate, I sincerely apologize. It was not my intent to abuse this forum.

Specializes in Everything except surgery.

I for one...do not look for money as my first concern! I prefer to have good working conditions, and a management that listens, and hears! Going for the money is great, as long as you don't have to work where all that is keeping you there is the money, and even then you're questioning your sanity for staying!

I've seen just how bad it can get, and I will take less money, for a better work setting...any day! Too many hospitals give the feeling, that because they pay well....they should be able to use you like a slave...and treat you like you have no intelligent thought in your head, except for the ones they give you! In that case, they can keep their money! I want to be treated well, and respected for the work I do!
