First time wanna be traveler looking for company

Hi. I am finishing up my first year as an RN at a Cancer Hospital in FL. I would like to travel to California, Colorado or Hawaii, but I am flexible. I want to stay in oncology wherever I go, and I was wondering what opportunities are out there for me??
How much can I expect to make?
How soon would I be able to select an assignment? (I am looking to travel in the beginning of January)
Any companies that could use me please respond. I am at the beginning of my search and would like some advice.
Thank you
---S

Re: First time wanna be traveler looking for company

Hi S,

I would just like to introduce myself, my name is Michele Risard,Nurse Recruiter for Advance Travel Nurses, Inc. I have traveled over thousands of nurses to various assignments across the United States. Pay to be expected in the travel industry can vary, depending on the company. We currenly are paying between $30-$35 an hour. We work with nurses that have a year experience in their speciality. Currently we have a position in Oncology in California that's close to the beach and San Francisco. This may be something you may consider. ATN will also reimburse you for your licensure. Selecting an assignment depends on how fast we can license you. That is always a factor. In the states that you are interested in would not be a factor in your case. They are very flexiable states. We will give you step by step directions on how to get these licenses. We currently have an office in California and Louisana. We also offer benefits, completion bonues, travel and single housing. If this interest you please do email me and I will be happy to assist you. mrisard@atnurses.com please also check out our website at www.atnurses.com .

Hope you fine the right company that meets your needs and questions. Happy hunting!

Sincerely,

Michele Risard, Senior Nurse Recruiter
