John thank you so much for this series. I've watched you for a while and come to trust your experience. I'm currently preparing to begin traveling this fall and this is perfect timing!

Ours cancelled our contract 10 days before start AFTER WE TRAVELLED TO THE LOCATION $ SECURED HOUSING 3800.00 loss because rent had to be paid in advance. If we cancelled we would have owed them money but when they cancel we get screwed

I’ve got three years of PICU experience and three years of general ER experience. Is it safe to say that I’ll typically be able to find travel positions? My nervousness comes from the possibility of not landing another position in tandem. My idea is to travel to all the big cities in the U.S. road tripping, so doing them in some type of sequential order thank you for your time!!

You will find jobs! There are currently more ER than PICU jobs but that is always fluctuating. The thing you might have trouble with is getting exactly where you want to go each time. Sometimes you have a general region like say northeast which is easier that say I want NYC next. The more narrow the location, the harder it is. Not impossible! Just may have to be patient. I'd (Kristin) would love to chat more. Even just to answer general travel nurse questions. :) www.noordinarypath.com/travelnursejobs/

@@NoOrdinaryPath thank you so much. I figured ED would be the most available. I would prefer that at this point anyway. But having ICU experience at a level 1 can’t hurt! I will for CERTAIN be keeping your information handy. Atlas has a good reputation from what I understand (which is very little at the moment haha). I’m not sure I’d be starting this fall, but would you like me to fill out the questionnaire anyway?

I have been a travel nurse for over 20 years and there has been a change in how the travel agency treats you. I have written a step-by-step guide to help you avoid some of the pitfalls. My book, So You Think You Want to Be a Travel Nurse by Dr. Rhoda will help you and save you a lot of problems.

How much experience should I have in a specialty (in my case ICU) before trying to travel? Thanks

We can find some jobs that take a year but most require 2 years of experience. The other part is that it's best to have that extra experience just for own sake. It can be hard to walk onto a travel job and hit the ground running in some specialties.
