Will travel nursing hurt my chances at a staff job? I did 3 contracts in 2 years, and it was great, but now I'm looking for stability. Hiring managers seem iffy about my resume, though. Do they think I'll just bail? How do I show them I'm serious about staying put if hired?

I did travel nursing for five years. I have had no issues. Make sure you have your resume up to date and stress your experience in the areas you did. Good luck

We consider it an asset because it shows adaptability. The only concern we have tends to be regarding pay. Be ready to convince them that you are more than comfortable with the pay offered long-term.

I don’t think so. I had a friend who did travel nursing and then once she was ready to settle down if you will and choose one facility, she really had no problem at all, and actually, she had a lot of experience with the travel nursing so that only helped her.

I wouldn’t think so. As long as you have good references and a decent employment history, you should be more than fine.

Not sure if that’s a typical caseload or not?

Hi all, I have about 7 years of professional experience but only one year as a Customer Success Manager. I work on mid market accounts currently. I love my job, but would prefer to support a more robust platform that will allow me to add more value for my customers.

I’d appreciate your thoughts on what compensation you might expect for a CSM transitioning to a new company with one year of experience.

To clarify, I don’t have an offer yet, I’m just looking to make a move.

Thank you!
