Why Work with a Travel Nurse and Allied Health Agency?
At some point in your healthcare career, you’ve likely received some form of marketing material from a travel nursing and allied health agency imploring you to work with them. In this video, the First Time Traveler Guide explains why you actually need an agency and recruiter, as well as the benefits they provide.
Why Work with a Travel Nurse and Allied Health Agency?
First, it’s important to note that it does not cost you anything to work with a travel nurse and allied health agency. While you may be hesitant to jump on board with a travel nurse and allied health agency, understanding what an experienced recruiter can do for you may ease your concerns.
Recruiters at an agency will work for you to find travel jobs that fit your needs and requirements. Many companies have established partnerships with healthcare facilities and networks, giving you an “in” for jobs that otherwise may be difficult to obtain.
When you’re on assignment, your recruiter and agency will serve as your advocate and resource outside of the facility. Having someone whom you can turn to with questions and concerns can be a huge comfort when on assignment.
A travel nurse and allied health agency can also provide you with additional benefits such as medical coverage, retirement options, bonus programs, and support, all at no cost to you.
