Choose the agency and assignment you want to go for. Your recruiter should offer you several different assignments in various locations according to the preferences you stated in your profile. Check out your available options and then it's time to make some choices on which assignment you want to pursue.
At this point you should have already talked to your recruiter at your chosen agency for an interview and narrowed down your choices. The Travel Nursing Agency will then present you to the healthcare facility and the facility will schedule a phone interview with you. Your recruiter will help you coordinate this call.
If you accept the assignment the team at your agency will work with you regarding licensing, credentialing and housing arrangements.
Sometimes you may be asked to extend your assignment for another 13 weeks. That means you have impressed your assignment healthcare facility and they value your skills and experience. Your recruiter will contact you about an extension if it is offered to talk with you about your next assignment.
