If you know that you will need time off prior to the start of your assignment, you should share that with your recruiter during your initial discussions about any opportunity you may be considering. That way we can include a request for the time off, when we send your profile to the client. If you have a need for time off after accepting an offer, or beginning an assignment, it is best to make such a request face to face, with the nurse manager at the facility.

GHR receives new orders for travel nurses constantly. It is important to provide us with minimal information up front, so that we can respond promptly, and submit you to opportunities without having to ask you for additional information. Normally, all we need up front from you is contact information, education and work history, a completed skills checklist for your specialty, copies of your BLS and ACLS, and two supervisor references. All other compliance needed to put you to work will only be asked for after you accept an assignment.
