Good travel RN company

Emergency Department RN (Former Employee) - Falls Church, VA - September 16, 2018

Indeed Featured review

The most useful review selected by Indeed

The recruiters will work with you to get you want you want. If location is your priority they focus on that. If blocked scheduling is what you need they tell the hospital liason that upfront so you only interview with hospitals that can work with your requests-i.e. needing every other weekend off or time off for a vacation already booked, etc. If you want experience in a Level I trauma center they will get it for you.

Pros

Recruiters are organized-on boarding is a breeze

Cons

No per diem for assignments less than 100 miles from home

Recruiter (Former Employee) - Omaha, NE - November 2, 2023

the old owner was great but once they sold off to a company who said they wouldn't clean house... they did.. even after looking at hundreds of these employees in the eye at an all company meeting

Energizing and draining workplace

Client Manager (Former Employee) - Omaha, NE - October 6, 2023

The typical workday based off of how you essentially wanted to plan your schedule. Mainly, the typical workday was constant communication: email, teams messages, texts messages, phone calls or video meetings (or if in the office face to face interaction). Working remotely, my day was easy going without distractions so I was able to set my own typical workday schedule. Meetings once a week for weekly touch-bases were essential in the daily workflow. I learned so much about the staffing industry, industry trends, laws, rules and regulations as well as what it is like to work as a team but from a remote location. Management was not really management. Management was very hands off; they do not step in and correct actions whatsoever (constructive criticism or any sort of crucial guidance is not in their methods) nor did they help to send you in the right direction when you ask for help. Management's vision of having a team under them is basically "sink or swim". The culture that is portrayed upon starting: teamwork, adventure, family, fun, growth - does definitely show throughout the first three months, but things drastically change after a certain amount of time. Company outings were always a key opportunity to get to show the culture that they wanted to have but nothing changed afterwards. Hardest part of the job was trying to make sure that my every single move was recorded and done correctly: picture perfect. The most enjoyable part of the job was building relationships through just the phone alone, that will last a lifetime!

Pros

1 hour lunch, PTO accumulated monthly, monthly commission checks, bonuses

Cons

Poor management and job insecurity

A great travel agency

Medical Laboratory Technician (Current Employee) - Colorado - September 14, 2023

With all agencies a lot of your experience will depend on your recruiter. But overall, I feel, the business practices here are made mostly in all parties best interests. I appreciate that about them.

Nice company to work for.

Respiratory Therapist (Current Employee) - Travel - September 13, 2023

The recruiter I have is very knowledgeable and strives to keep me employed. They over vision, dental, and medical insurance. The typical workday varies by location. Management can be tricky to get ahold of. The most enjoyable part of this position is the ability to travel all over the country and earn a living while doing it.

No job security

Account Manager (Former Employee) - Omaha, NE - August 27, 2023

New to the recruiting era watch out!!! Given how the market is currently and how hard it is for AM's to get traveler jobs, LRS does not care! If you are not making production, you are gone. They don't care if you have a family or not. No two week notice, no nothing.

Good place to work

Med Tech (Former Employee) - Ohio - July 17, 2023

My recruiter is great but the credentialing specialists are not so great. Important information should be given through a phone call or email, not text messages. Making people do things facilities do not require for you to have but telling us they require things like a Covid booster shot is not good. The communication could be better because when you’re working and randomly you get a text about completing something in days, it is disheartening and throws your schedule off. I think improvement is possible, they just need the proper training in place and better management.

Pros

Pay on time

Cons

Improper communication

They get you by putting you on a 2 yr probationary period.

Rehabilitation counselor (Former Employee) - Alexandria, LA - May 18, 2023

During this time they can let you go for any reason and do not have to give their reason. Too many clients and not enough staff. Everyone is overworked and overwhelmed. DS is busy and Regional Manager is busy so if you’re new a lot of what you’re supposed to be learning or asking about how certain things are done aren’t going to be answered. It’s hard to build up time for leave if you constantly have Child support Court or drs spots. God forbid your children get sick and you have to stay home with them. You’re literally working for the state. They should set the bar for doing the best for their employees.

Fulfilling jobs with some good locations available

MLT (ASCP) (Current Employee) - Omaha, NE - March 31, 2023

I have enjoyed my 2 years that I’ve spent with LRS. I would like to have a better website to use as posting are not always updated and very vague. I have changed recruiter a couple of times which was a little challenging at times. It has been a good experience overall however I feel like that the pay seems to be less than other agencies

Pros

Will keep you working

Cons

Lower pay

Good money but contracts are limited

LPN Travel Nurse (Former Employee) - Omaha, NE - March 28, 2023

They had plenty of contracts in multiple locations but you have to be quick in order to get one of the good locations or a location that you desire. The recruiters are very sympathetic to complaints or emergencies if needed. Your recruiter is your most important resource when traveling out of state make sure that your recruiter has your best interest at heart and you make them your best friend while gone from home they can make or break your experience

Pros

Caring recruiter

Cons

Being isolated from family

Typical healthcare staffing company.

Traveling Medical Technologist (Former Employee) - Omaha, NE - March 23, 2023

What is the best part of working at the company?High bill rates equals high pay. What is the most stressful part about working at the company?Meeting time card deadlines and the resulting nagging, especially during COVID. Also having to resend timecards. Working with a computerized time card system would be better. What is the work environment and culture like at the company?They seem to party a lot. At least they post frequent pics of parties. Hard to look at when I’m busting my butt earning for them the money that supports the company. What is a typical day like for you at the company?Hard stressful lab work. Sometimes with short or interrupted breaks.

It depends on where they send you.

Traveling Medical Laboratory Scientist (Current Employee) - San Luis Obispo, CA - February 14, 2023

I have been able to be placed in three assignments in the year I have been with them. My recruiter is great. It is all what you make it. If you are a flexible traveler you will find lots of opportunities.

A good travel company

Travel Nurse (Former Employee) - Massachusetts - January 29, 2023

I had a good experience working with LrS. They always had plenty of available contracts and I was paid really well. I stayed with them for about two years but left because I needed more stability.

Ok but needs a change

Credentialing Specialist (Former Employee) - Omaha, NE - January 23, 2023

LRS lacks diversity, respect for others. The culture is not so great and could be better. There is a higher division between departments. Certain department are undervalued and it shows with the lack of respect shown.

Pros

Remote work

Cons

Everything
