Anyone know about the RN pre employment assessment test? I took it today and thought I got all the questions correct. However, it says I didn't meet retirements and gave me a link to the career section. No score or anything. Anyone know the process i...

Again, I would never advise it and never talked to a recruiter who would. However, I haven't spoken to them all I guess. A year as an RN is barely a start. Traveling is great, but it's still doing the job of nursing 3-4 days a week. Hope it turns out...

lol, a scam? not hardly i've worked for All About Staffing/Parallon on and off for a few years and never experienced an issue. i've also recommended friends for travel here and worked contracts and never had issues. i think it sounds more like a re...

Have you been in contact with a travel agency? Coming from someone that's done local per diem and traveling, 1 year is not a lot of nursing time to start traveling. I've worked with several agencies and I haven't come across any reputable that doesn'...

I have an interview for a regional float position with Kaiser this week. Free insurance for the family and about $12 more an hour would have me banking a lot more money a month. I would save $800 a month in insurance alone, not including the bump in ...

Here is what I was told.... They can't promise I would never have to go long distances, such as the 1.5 I mentioned, but they try to float others closer first. In short, I'd probably go there on occasion, not regularly. What the position is, would be...

Thanks everyone for the comments and thoughts to ponder and consider. My wife is saying, no way. But I'm interested in hearing the offer. My first thought was, "How many days you guys going to send me 1.5 hours to this facility". Once every couple we...

Passed

OK, I'm back. The first time through I didn't know it was a pass/fail, 89% to pass. I applied to a similar position last week and just got an email to take the test again. I think what got me was the dose calculations. Haven't done those in years and...

Glad I saw this post. Im looking at taking some type of Holistic training and certification. In particular life coaching. My wife is a PT and wanting to do the same thing. We'd like to even open our own practice and build a clientele. I've been a RN...

How about University?

First a bit about me.... I'm a full time staff nurse at a hospital i like. However, last month i started Agency work PRN just to make some extra money. Since working 5 Agency shifts, i like it enough to consider going fulltime and quitting my sta...

I was looking at the USVI and was told by Cross Country that they will not hire a first time traveler. Has things changed? I'm a 6 year nurse having done agency full time the last year and I'm ready to travel. Wanted to go to STT but was told I co...

About 3 years ago i was set to go to Alaska with Providence Staffing. I secured my Alaska license, but things didn't work out and i eventually moved. Now here i am again looking to travel to Alaska next spring/summer. I called and talked with the...

Sorry as i know this has been asked before.... But i'm wondering when i should look into contacting agencies if i want to travel starting late June? I live in Florida and really want to do an assignment somewhere relatively close (in-state) for my...

so i should get my resume in order and start contacting agencies next week then to ask about assignments for June?

I'll be starting traveling this summer with my wife and 6 year old. We live in Florida and are ready to get out of here. We are wanting to head out west/north west, but we have alot of interest in Alaska as well. I can't remember seeing much about...

I just posted a question in the Travel forum about Alaska. I'm starting traveling next summer with my wife and 6 year old. We would love to travel and take an assignment to Alaska. Anyone know of specific hospitals that certainly take travelers?

I'll be starting travel nursing next June with my wife and 6 yr. old son coming along. We live in Central Florida and can't wait to get out of here. Tentatively, our plans are to start somewhere in Colorado or Northern California. We know nothin...

I'm going to start travel nursing next Spring/Summer....around June. My wife is a Physical Therapist Assistant and we have a 5 1/2 who will be 6 years old son. We live in Florida now and want to desperately get out of here. We are just looking to get...

I'm a RN that wants to start traveling next summer with my wife. My wife also happens to be a Physical Therapist Assistant. Before i was in school, we had considered traveling with her as a PTA....she had numerous offers. I was wondering if anyon...

I was watching a special on the new resorts they are building in Dubai and was wondering about nursing there. There has got to be some new hospitals they are building there to accommodate all those new homes and neighborhoods. Has anyone ever trave...
