"Travel Nursing Direct found me an ICU assignment in San Diego paying $3,200/week with free housing. My recruiter answered texts at 10pm when I had questions. Absolutely unmatched service."

"I was nervous about my first travel assignment. The team walked me through every step — licensing, housing, even the best neighborhoods. I'm on my 6th contract now."
Marcus T., RN
"As a Labor & Delivery nurse, I needed a very specific type of facility. TND matched me with a Level III NICU hospital in Seattle within 3 days. The salary guide they provide is incredibly accurate."
