Need the name of a good recruiter

Hi everybody,
I am looking into going into travel nursing, I am a hospice nurse and what I am finding is it is most of the larger companies that have the positions I'm looking for. I have been reading the boards for the last couple of weeks and have touched based with several companies ie: Medical Express, PRN staffing, RN network. I definately want a good recruiter that has been good for other nurses. If you know of anyone let me know and I will get in touch with them. So glad you all post the information you have it is really helpful.

Elgin A.
medstaff
senior recruiter

if you would please say jimmy the foot referred you

Elgin is a straight shooter
been with him for a year now and don't see a reason to change recruiters or companies honestly

Wink Re: Need the name of a good recruiter

I'm a Psych RN Traveler so I have had to deal with a number of Travel Nursing Companies to get the best assignments.

Years ago I started communicating with literally all of them (alot)but slowly but surely with research and dealings with many recruiters I've narrowed down the list of my favorite recruiters from my favorite companies that I contact near the end of every contract. If you would like to contact them just pm me here or through my website (they deal in all specialities including allied).

I believe you have a better selection of opportunities by doing this. I know alot of Travelers say I have the best recruiter and best company and I'm not leaving them because I've had bad experiences with other recruiters and companies.

If that works for you and makes you happy stick with it but because there are a few or more than a few bad apples doesn't mean there aren't other better shinier apples after you found one.

I think so many Nurses have worked perm so many years that even when they make the leap to Traveling the idea of moving around companies is foreign to them. They somehow get the notion that this is disloyal and they will be struck by lightning .

It's just wise business but even the best negotiating Travelers including Independent Contracors are not super rich as many Travel Nursing Companies owners.
