UrgentCover is a lifesaver. We posted a job at 8 AM for a sick call, and the shift was filled by 8:05 AM. I'm never using a traditional agency again.

As a locum, getting instant alerts for jobs near me is fantastic. I can fill my schedule, and I know I'm getting paid the full rate shown. 100% free!
