Travel Nursing Advice

[amkare]

Interested in travel nursing and wondering what are some important questions to ask recruiters about their companies? I am interested in travel nursing and have read around about it but thought I would ask what you find are some important questions to ask recruitment companies that I wouldn't think or know to ask. Thanks!

Hello amkare,

Travel Nursing Guide Archives - The Gypsy Nurse Provides a great resource of what to expect from travel nursing and some questions you should be asking your recruiter or agency. Things you may want to keep in mind would be the margins that the recruiter or agency takes. Some companies will take a much higher margin or a much lower margin this percentage will determine how much money you are being paid. The pay rate you receive may fluctuate for the same contract depending on the different agencies you work with.

The more agencies you talk to, the more you will discover what questions you need to ask. Each conversation you have will raise questions you might be able to clarify with the next recruiter. Take notes.
