Pros
I have been working with Host Healthcare under my recruiter Alison Kon for the past 2 contracts! As a Canadian travel nurse, there are a lot of extra steps for licensing and obtaining contracts in the US. She has been the best at advocating for me and obtaining great contracts! She's been extremely supportive and always available to answer my questions and assist me in any way. I love working with Alison and Host!
