Become a NursesRx Traveling Nurse in 6 Easy Steps

1. Fill out an application and skills checklist

Filling out our online application immediately provides us with the basic information we need to start finding your ideal travel nursing assignment. Remember that even though you submit a completed application, you are NOT obligated to become a traveling nurse with us. Apply now to get started!

2. Meet your recruiter

Once we accept your application, NursesRx will assign a dedicated recruiter to start working with you. As your main NursesRx contact, the recruiter will help you shape your travel nursing career, so make sure you tell the recruiter what you want from your life as a traveling nurse. Do you want to see a specific area of the country or work in a prestigious facility? Do you want to explore an exciting big city or enjoy a cozy, small town? Do you want to stay close to home or travel across the country? You decide on perferences; we will help make them a reality.

3. Chose a travel nursing job destination

From the information you provide, your recruiter will find traveling nurse job assignments that are custom-fit to your skills and travel and career preferences.  Depending on your specialty, hospitals typically prefer that travel nurses have at least 18 months—and often two years—of experience working in an acute-care setting.  You and your recruiter will compare what each traveling nurse job has to offer, evaluate pay, review hospital requirements and determine which suits your needs. If you’re undecided about where you want to go, our destination highlights and state profiles resources will help you decide.

4. Telephone interview with the facility

Once you select a traveling nurse job opportunity, you will have a telephone interview with a hospital; usually with a nurse manager. Your recruiter will help you prepare so that you ace the interview and get the job.

5. Accept the traveling nurse job assignment

Congratulations, you've got the job! NursesRx will help you with any credentialing requirements and state licensure processes needed. Housing managers will find you free, private housing and arrange for utilities and furniture delivery-all the details to make your assignment as a traveling nurse a rewarding and enjoyable experience.
