I had an exceptional experience working with Ali Zane and Aya Healthcare. From the start, she was professional, attentive, and responsive to all of my questions. She truly went above and beyond to find assignments that matched my preferences and made the entire process seamless. I felt supported every step of the way, and I highly recommend Ali to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated recruiter!

I have worked with Aya the last 2 years as a CST and cannot rave enough about this company. Lori Fried has been such a great resource and been by my side throughout the process. If you would like to request a certain recruiter, this should be your go to gal!

I have worked with Rebecca Baxter (senior recruiter specialist extraordinaire) since 2015. She has always worked very hard to ensure my assignments are perfect. She is very personable, and I would go so far as to call her a friend. She is always willing to fix any problems I have with contracts and on-site. I highly recommend her.

I have enjoyed the 4 years I have traveled with Aya Healthcare. My recruiter Monica Hamilton along with Kennedy Lambert her assistant recruiter helped me navigate a smooth workflow through a pandemic and thereafter. I highly recommend Aya to any incoming traveling staff. Monica and Kennedy created such a strong relationship with me, that I gave them the authority to submit me for jobs they knew I would want. My two favorite hospitals were brought to me by them before they were available on the Aya application. Which made my search easier in the summers. Aya's health and dental insurance were amazing and helped me remain healthy throughout my contracts. The insurance itself is affordable and is a partial reason I never left Aya . Along with having Monica and Kennedy by my side as my recruiting team. Even Aya's HR team was helpful when having conflict with staff, they are impartial and very helpful. I would be dishonest to say that Aya has the highest paying contracts (comparable) , yet what you get in a trade off for me was 100% worth it. I had persistent insurance and great support staff. Don't hesitate to join the team.P.S. They give you a free pizza on your birthday. haha

I’ve worked with Monica now for around 4 years and wouldn’t have it any other way. After a brief time with a different recruiting company, Monica makes it clear that she is the cream of the crop and always puts her clients first. She always makes the process seamless and ensures that I'm 100% happy with everything. Whether you're just starting out or have been traveling for years, I would recommend Monica to anyone!

I’ve been traveling with AYA for a little over two years. I’ve completed 7 contracts and I’m currently on my 8th one. My recruiter, Lori Fried, is so good to me. Her and her team have really gone out of their way to find exactly what I’m looking for.I could not have asked for a better recruiter.I’m so glad I was referred to her and AYA when I decided to start traveling.

I have had an outstanding experience working with my recruiter Skyler Blevins at Aya Healthcare. From the very first conversation, he was incredibly professional, responsive, and genuinely invested in helping me find the perfect assignment. He took the time to understand my preferences, career goals, and any concerns I had, ensuring that each opportunity presented was a great fit for me. What stood out the most was their dedication to making the process as smooth and stress-free as possible.Their transparency and honesty throughout the process made me feel confident in every decision we made together. I couldn't have asked for a better partner in my job search, and I highly recommend Aya Healthcare and their exceptional recruiters to anyone looking for a personalized and positive travel healthcare experience.

My recruiter Avery Winner is the best out there! She would always send me what I wanted and if I was not happy about something, she would make she it was correct. She always had my back and stood by me when I needed her. Aya has great people in all departments. I would choose Aya ever time!
