Ok! I will definitely call when I get closer to arriving in the area. I appreciate your advice!

So you'd advice travel even though chances are slim I would be traveling at one of those two hospitals? I am interested in UW's graduate nursing programs eventually and that is why I want to get into one of those hospitals. Thanks!

In terms of competitive wages, that really wouldn't bother me since any wage is better than no wage at all. Im concerned it may take months to get in to UW Medical or Swedish and thus a travel job would offer something in the interim. Any additional advice? I know the chances of landing a dream travel position are slim, especially with my level of experience. If I took a travel position but then did get hired at UW or Swedish, would it hurt me to push back my starting date until after I fulfilled my travel commitment? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I am moving to Seattle in September with my boyfriend and am wondering how long I should anticipate it to take to find a job at Swedish or UW Medical. I have 2 years experience on a med-card stepdown floor, my BSN and my PCCN. I am also interested in the possibility of doing one 13 week travel assignment when we first arrive and using my spare time to pursue a permanent position at one of the other hospitals. What advice do you all have? Thanks!

Hey everyone, I am a nurse on a med-card stepdown floor and just hit my 2 year mark, so I am still relatively green. My boyfriend and I are moving to Seattle and I am wondering if it is wise to try and take a travel job initially so that I have a quick position and can make some money while I apply at Swedish and UW Medical Center. Any advice on whether or not this is a good idea? Also, if I choose to go this route, how soon before arriving in Seattle should I be applying to Travel Nursing agencies? Thanks!
