Get Prepared For The Steps In The Process

Before starting your first travel assignment, ensure your RN license is up to date, if needed, and have complete immunization and physical examination records. Your CV should highlight your nursing skills and experience, and you should have several references who can vouch for you.

When you identify assignments of interest, your recruiter will submit you for them and prepare you for the interview process. During the interview, inquire about important aspects such as scheduling, patient to nurse ratios, required skills, etc.

State Licensing Requirements

You can start the RN license process in states where you plan to work, even before securing an assignment. Some states, like California, New Jersey, and New York, take over a month to process licenses. Many states process applications quickly, often in a few days. Some states allow you to obtain an RN license in one day by visiting the state nursing board directly.

Being part of the Nurse Licensure Compact, which includes 25 states, makes the process easier. Your recruiter will assist you in obtaining a license in your chosen state. Experts knowledgeable in RN licensing procedures will help you.

Your Area Of Expertise

Each facility has its own policy, but typically, a year or more of experience in your specialization is required. While requirements vary, you can apply for travel positions after a year of continuous experience. Some specialties, like psychiatric Registered Nurse and cardiac ICU, require over 2 years of experience.

Versatility

Along with skills and experience, flexibility is crucial for a successful travel nurse. Be open to various hospital policies, procedures, and locations to gain additional skills during your travel experience. Even if your first choice is an assignment in Hawaii, dont miss out on opportunities in different locations. Most contracts are for 13 weeks, making it easy to explore several cities within a year.

Job References and Skills Checklist

A crucial part of your application is your set of clinical references. Ensure they are readily available to confirm your clinical skills. Three references are usually sufficient. A travel nurse will typically fill out a skills checklist along with their references.

After addressing references and skills, we can start seeking contracts that match your requirements. When you accept a job, we will help with additional details such as immunizations and drug testing.
