  • Episode #106 - "In Defense of Agencies"

    On today's episode Mark takes a rare look at some of the things that agencies are wrongfully asked to "foot the bill" for in the travel process. While Mark always openly admits to so much of the "blame" that agencies share in some of the negatives that are travel healthcare, we thought it would help travelers to understand why some agencies are forced to increase their margins. This episode really helps travelers to understand why some agencies act they way they do when it comes to "no-shows," "cancellations," and "terminations."

  • Episode #105 - "Monolithic Agencies"

    On today's episode, Mark openly discusses the "big" agencies and what they do to the market in times of strong demand for healthcare travelers and times, (Like right now) when the demand is somewhat less than normal. There are a lot of "wrinkles" that many travelers may not be aware of that agencies smooth out during tough market times. This episode sheds some light on exactly what those big agencies do well, and where they struggle somewhat for the travel healthcare industry.

  • Episode #104 - "Gross Pay Differences with Agencies"

    On today's episode Mark breaks down specifically why it is that the rate that agencies offer varies soooo much between each and every agency. While he's discussed this topic on numerous occasions, we decided to dedicate an entire episode to this specific topic because of its importance, especially right now with the inventory of travel positions at such a low point in our industry's history.

  • Episode #102 - "New Recruiters"

    On today's episode, Mark openly discussed the sometimes dangerous aspect of putting your career in the hands of a brand-new inexperienced recruiter. The crazy part is just how common a "new" recruiter is in our industry. He talks about the "rotating door" and the turnover that has become the model for the most expensive part of an agency's operating expenses. An extremely important episode as we continue to navigate a more difficult travel market.
