Most agencies only require 1-2 years experience. That being said, do you feel like you're ready? The main thing to ask yourself is can you be self starting no matter where you go? Also when talking to recruiters, register with at least 2 companies, and let them know you are not talking to them exclusively! Make them work for you and not be pressured into taking whatever they offer. Also make sure that whatever they tell you is in writing before you sign a contract. Mike

Texas does not have a state tax.. The last time I was offered a contract in Texas it was for $28 an hour with housing. Did not see if stipend was included but it probably was. I agree that you should get take home of at least 1000 a week but Texas is a lower paying state overall. I am registered with 14 different companies and I make sure they all know it......I am not settling on a low deal..and I let them know that too. They are supposed to be working for you and making you happy so you will continue to work for them. Some of the recruiters don't realize this or seem to care. Just my 2 cents

I am planning on taking it soon......any pointers?? I have been a Nurse for 19 years and 12 in ER
