Northern California Travelers

Published

Hello,

I am planning on traveling to Northern California starting in July or August. I am talking to many agencies (not decided who to go with yet) and deciding exactly where to go.

Are there any other soon-to-be-travelers out there who want to trade notes on agencies and areas?

Also if there are any other NoCal travelers that want to offer advice on hopsitals/agencies/areas pls let me know.

HI there........Im a new traveler and about to embark on my first assignment.......I am going to be in the san francisco bay area. Very excited and nervous at the same time. At this point im talking with a couple of agencies and have a few hospitals that have contracts available. I think the rates could be better, considering the high cost of living in this area.

What has been your experience and have you got an assignment yet?

I have a couple of friends here in the area and have been out and researched the area and hospitals in person whilst here visiting.......maybe we could campare notes......

Im also looking to start in Aug.

The pay "could be better", but housing is very expensive in SF! (And parking is a big issue if you are bringing your car. Parking is sporifice and oftentimes you have to pay for it.) If you are looking to make better money, go to one of the surrounding cities and you can always take Caltrain or BART into the city.

I started my bay area job and just love it. Good pay, easy job. I am extending. Turned out great for a first travel job.

I was considering looking a a job in the city though. Can you tell me what hospital you are at and what area? Do you like the hospital?

thx

I also started my job in the bay area. First travel assignment :) Im loving it!!!! I have come to the conclusion that its all about attitude. I have heard horror stories about my hospital and florr.....I havent had the same experince and I believe just how I choose to look at situations........anyways, Im rambling.

I am in south bay. I also wanted to get into the city, but now I may stay down here. I love my location. Trail right outside my door......cute little town and close to Santa Cruz mountains and im hiking everyday im off......which is why I actually came here.

We should compare notes off this site.......I cant PM you here.
