Sarah knew this was my first experience as a travel nurse. She made sure I was informed every step of the way. I appreciate her honesty about where I would fit best. She did not oversell just to get me hired. She was kind and genuinely excited for me when I received a contract. I look forward to working with her in the future.
Cons
There aren't enough Sarah Osbornes out there.
