About Russ Waehler:

Fantastic as a recruiter! Assisted me in getting my first contract! He communicated very well and is very responsive as well as attentive to my needs. He assured to keep up with me and ask how to assist in looking for contracts that fitted my needs. As someone who works nightshift, it can be difficult to talk and communicate during the day, but he was very understanding and helpful throughout this process.

I worked with Russ as my recruiter back in 2019 when I was new to travel nursing and had such a great experience that I was so happy that he was still a recruiter in 2026!
