hot jobs



This is my current list of “hot” PCU travel nurse jobs, chosen because they check the boxes I know matter most: strong pay, great facilities, or a quick interview process. I update this regularly so you can see at a glance what’s worth applying to right now.


Quick Market Insights

  • Most roles are PCU/IMC stepdown positions with a strong emphasis on 12-hour night shifts.

  • Weekly gross pay generally ranges from just under $2,000 to the mid-$2,700s, with higher pay tied to 48-hour contracts.

  • The majority of contracts are 13 weeks, with occasional 8-, 10-, 14-, and 15-week options.

  • Start dates cluster heavily between mid-January and late February 2026, indicating concentrated winter demand.

  • Several facilities show multiple concurrent openings, signaling sustained need rather than one-off backfills.
