Job search engine Adzuna released new research Oct. 26 highlighting travel nurse jobs and their average advertised salaries and vacancies as of September 2023.
Adzuna pulls job listings from the U.S. and 18 other countries. The company indexes job ads from more than 100,000 companies and more than 1,000 sources — from large job boards such as Monster to direct employers including Amazon, Walmart and Ford.
For the new research, which was shared with Becker's, Adzuna examined average advertised salaries and vacancies solely in the U.S. Advertised vacancies represent the number of jobs that are open/available to fill.
