| Comments: {I completed my 13 week assignment. Loved the hospital I was at. Signed a second contract for 13 more weeks. (I renegotiated terms for second contract.) They refused to pay me what the second contract rate. Paid me for 2 weeks of work at the first contract rate. I told the hospital what was going on, that I probably was not going to stay due to the agency being unethical. The agency told the hospital that there was nothing was wrong and that I would be there to work! I do not recommend this company.} | |||||||||||||||||||

| Comments: {Aureus is better pay, is much more organized,. There were in every other Avance that I applied before, one person who unnecessary disturbed me, Trustaff had Rachel for example. Aureus has no one like that, it is about business, no unnessary calls. Tim and Natalie are great to work with, they answer my question, support yet no one in Aureus disturb. Pay is good, organized work,I enjoy working with Aureus so far.} | |||||||||||||||||||

| Comments: {My agent cera, initally told me there would be a sign on bonus, but then as we started to progress to paperwork, suddenly, she said they didn–t do that. They sent me paperwork to waive my right to receive medical and dental insurance.When i asked what that was all about, she was like, well you would make less money if you used our insurance. i was also encouraged to quit my regular job,so i could go for more assignment.Can you imagine if i did that. it was a dragout out process to get housing. When it was all said and done, what i would have actually gotten paid was 300 dollars less than what i get paid at my regular job. I felt she was sneaky and not sincere. The lying about sign on bonus, and not wanting to give me insurance turned me off.} | |||||||||||||||||||
