Hello all nurses out there...
I applied to a PRN job through a company called "parallon" that hires nurses for HCA facilities across the US. I am really concerned because I gave a lot of personal information to them…my social security…a copy of my DL front and back and the DL number…..I am wondering if this is a scam to get your personal information??
How do you protect ur self from identity theft.?
Am I being paranoid? I heard this is a legitimate company but working for HCA hospitals is bad…(which i am not concerned about at this time)
ANyone apply to this company? have any thoughts? I Need feedback please lol
Thanks
God bless

No worries. They're legit. I'm getting on with them now and I have quite a few friends who work with them, too.
ETA: Oh, and as for identity theft: I have ID Theft insurance from these guys. Probably won't have to use it, but it's great peace of mind.
Hmmm…their process seems scary because you are giving so much personal information online…..why do they need a picture of your drivers slicense and a picture of social security card? When you applied….did you go to estaff365.com?

In order to make an informed decision, read this and then search the travel nursing forum for HCA and their agency Parallon.
ICU RN MAggie, thanks for that but I have already posted there, they actually suggested me to post here…since Parallon hires a lot of travel nurses :)
The ss card and driver's license are both standard things to determine legal eligibility to work. Yep, everything happens on estaff365. They also like to make everything sound super urgent!!!!!! but I remained unconvinced that anyone will die if I don't re-upload my TB test immediately.
