Atlas All Access

On Atlas All Access, we sit down with VP of Operations Joel Kozisek and Allied Division Manager Dan Dickmeyer and lay out the good, the bad, and the ugly of travel nursing in 2023.

It was a bit of a roller coaster, and we will dive right in and discuss all three as we wrap up the year that was 2023.

So please sit back, take a load off, and join us on this week's Atlas All Access.

Back in the studio after a long week at TravCon, Rich is ready to look at our industry and what it appears like from the recruiter seat. Joining Rich is former traveler turned recruiter and nurse, Brad McDonald.

After a few weeks away, Rich is back and he has some pretty awesome news about the BluePipes top 20 list.

Now we have been on it 6 out of the last 7 times so we had a good idea we would be back on again.

Little did we know that after reviewing 420 different agencies and reading through a little over 160,000 reviews, Atlas MedStaff would come out as the top-ranked travel healthcare agency.

That is amazing.

So how did we get here? Well, Rich talks about this and more on this week's Atlas All Access. 

As Captain Picard would say, "ENGAGE."

That's what we are talking about this week, the @Bullhorn Engage convention. We brought in Atlas COO Steve Seitner to discuss takeaways from Engage 2023.

From our recent launch of OTE, the benefits of Great Recruiters, to the implementation of AI in the future, there are just a few things we talk about this week on the Atlas All Access from our time at the Bullhorn Engage Conference 2023 where Rich was also a speaker.

All that and you get to see Rich without a hat.

This week on Atlas All Access we sit down with travel nurse recruiter and former travel nurse, Brad McDonald. We talk about the state of the industry and get a bit of an inside look from a former travel nurse's point of view.

All this and more as we look into the ever-changing landscape in the travel nurse industry on this week's Atlas All Access.

So what is a Meet & Greet? This week, Rich and Dolan talk about just that. Some people think it is just going out to the bars scene and that is just not the case. From Spring Training Baseball to vising an actual warship, there is a lot to do on Meet & Greets.

And guess what, you don't even have to be an Atlas MedStaff travel nurse to come. We're not selling anything and this isn't a recruitment drive, it is just us giving back and saying thanks to you because your job is hard enough.

For years we have focused mostly on being a travel nurse company. We have hung our hat on that for many years. But, after years of hearing from our vendors about providing Allied professionals, we are taking that chance and expanding our business.

On board for this transition is Dan Dickmeyer, our Allied Division Manager. Dan has been on our radar for years and comes to us with 5 years in the Allied space. Helping him out on this journey, he has compiled a team of recruiters who have a passion for helping Allied professionals find work in a smaller job pool.

So tune in to this week's Atlas All Access and get a small peek into Atlas MedStaff's future in the Allied space. All that and more on another Atlas All Access. It starts now.

When 2022 started, what were your expectations of the year to come? Were rates going to continue to climb, come down, or settle somewhere in between? Did you know if your current company would make it through a very up and down year?

This week on Atlas All Access, Rich and Braden get together to talk about the year that was 2022. From rate changes to how companies are weathering the storm, both give their opinion on 2022 and take a look into the future of the industry.
