Pros
I’ve been working with Joey for several months before we finally landed on this assignment, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better recruiter. He really takes the time to listen to what I’m looking for and makes a real effort to find opportunities that match my preferences and goals. I never felt pressured into taking something that wasn’t right for me. This whole experience has been smooth and positive because of his support, communication, and patience throughout the process. I’m very grateful to have him as my recruiter and would definitely recommend him to other nurses.
Cons

About
Located midway between the North and the South, Baltimore is one of the oldest cities in the U.S. and the nation's capital for a short time during the Revolutionary War. It was here, at Fort McHenry, where Francis Scott Key saw the American flag flying overhead, inspiring him to pen The Star-Spangled Banner. Discover America’s history, from gilded-age mansions and national historic trails to the Edgar Allan Poe House and Fort McHenry National Monument. The Inner Harbor is one of the most popular areas, housing museums, restaurants, nightlife hotspots and one of the city's top attractions, the National Aquarium. It hosts some 660 animal species, including Bottlenose dolphins and puffins. This area also boasts many shopping and dining venues, and from here, you can catch a water taxi for a fun and different way to see the sites.
