Travel Assignment: California
JASNEEK Travel receives
a new assignment for an ICU nurse from one of its clients in Santa Barbara,
California. One of JASNEEK's recruiters, Rosy Smith, immediately searches
her database of ICU nurses who have registered with JASNEEK. She finds
14 who match the qualifications provided by the client and sees that 5
have requested assignments in the West. Thinking at least one of these
5 might be a good match for the position, Rosy contacts the 5 potential
nurse travelers.
On the first
ring, Kelly Tedesco answers the phone when Rosy calls. It turns out that
Kelly has just finished staying home for a month putting up new wallpaper
in her kitchen and bathrooms and is looking for a new traveling assignment.
Also, since it is cold in Indianapolis where she lives, Kelly is excited
about taking a position in Southern California where she can spend her free
time on the beach and enjoy the many attractions in that beautiful part
of the country. Kelly has been a traveling nurse for six years, and
has loved the excitement of traveling to new locations and exploring the
country. She is able to make more money than if she had a position at home,
and she is able to have benefits through JASNEEK. And, at the same time,
she has flexibility in choosing when she wants to work.
Rosy then
shares the following information with Kelly:
Details about
the position
Rosy discusses
with Kelly that this position will last for 13 weeks and she will be
paid $35.00 per hour plus overtime paid at two times her hourly fee.
In addition, Kelly will receive a $500.00 bonus when she completes the
assignment. Kelly will be guaranteed full time work for the entire assignment
and will work the 7:00 A.M. - 3:30 P.M. shift.

up for post surgical cardiac patients.
Housing
and travel
JASNEEK
will provide Kelly a free apartment. In addition, all travel expenses

401k program with JASNEEK match, and direct deposit of her earnings
weekly.
Description
of Santa Barbara

Ocean. The coastal community has long been considered one of California's
prime visitor destinations. The University of California, Santa Barbara,
is located 12 miles west in Goleta. Santa Barbara area is home to many
celebrities and a wide variety of attractions. The Santa Barbara mission
is famous landmark and the pier is a favorite place for evening walks.

Kelly's
decision
Kelly
is impressed with this offer and thinks she should accept it. However,
she asks Rosy for information on an assignment in San Antonio, a place
she has always wanted to see. After searching, Rosy tells Kelly that
a San Antonio position may become available in three weeks. Rosy decides
that she wants to begin working within a week, and therefore decides
on the Santa Barbara position. The next step will be an interview with
her supervisor in the hospital followed by completion of the necessary
forms to begin working in Santa Barbara. Rosy will guide Kelly through
this process completely, taking care of all details and making sure
Kelly's assignment goes smoothly. JASNEEK will monitor the assignment
and will ensure that Kelly has all she needs for a successful and exciting
work experience!
