Pros

Very responsive and cares about the travelers experience. Any issues I had were real on the spot

Cons

New company so they run into some obstacles that an established company might not have, but the growth is exponential with the care that the company gives.

Pros

It has always been a point of interest I looked for, just never did find the opportunity that I was able to obtain. I am looking for a change, a travel experience. I know many who love travel work. My daughter is also an attorney at the Bronx Public Defenders' office. I do not have experience inside institutions, but I know severe mental illness, poverty, and trauma. I am telling you, this is something I just know I will love and do well.

Cons

I am really interested in the New York City area and here an opportunity is at Rikers. Man! I'm excited just thinking about the possibility. I will remain eager to hear back and will go look at the licensure procedure right now.

None

Cons

Absolutely DO NOT trust First Connect Health Travel Nursing agency. I am beyond fed up with this company and the harassment I’ve endured. Despite REPEATEDLY telling them I am no longer interested, they continue to blow up my phone with texts, calls, and emails from different reps as if I’m stupid and won’t notice it’s the same agency under a different name or number. It’s relentless and disrespectful. I’ve asked multiple times—politely, firmly, and finally angrily—to be removed from their system. Instead of honoring that, they just pass my info off to another recruiter like I’m a lead on a spreadsheet, not a real human being. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I originally gave them a fair shot and was open to working with them until I did my own research and read dozens of reviews from other nurses who were harassed, lied to, lowballed, and flat-out mistreated. That confirmed everything I was experiencing. I got an offer (which I never accepted, thank God), and they tried to lowball the pay and laugh in my face when I asked about travel reimbursement—something that’s standard in ANY decent travel contract. When I tried to get clarity from the so-called “recruitment manager,” he talked lightning fast, had a thick accent, and refused to slow down. When I asked him to repeat himself, he hung up on me. No call back. No apology. Just gone. If that wasn’t intentional, he would’ve followed up like any professional. But no—they don’t care. Let’s be real: they tried to scam me and treat me like some naïve Black girl who didn’t know her worth. I know exactly what I’m worth. I’ve worked hard for my credentials and experience, and I won’t tolerate being treated like I’m disposable or uneducated. And the kicker? They’re an overseas company, meaning if something goes wrong on assignment in the U.S., good luck getting any real help or legal accountability. That’s not just inconvenient—it’s dangerous. Bottom line: STAY AWAY. They’re shady, aggressive, untrustworthy, and unprofessional. There are plenty of legitimate U.S.-based travel nurse agencies out there who respect your boundaries, know what they’re doing, and don’t try to run a scam. You’ve been warned. Don’t let them do to you what they tried to do to me.
