Travel Nurse Resume Template + Career Command Center

Manage every contract, compare pay packages, organize your licenses and credentials, and build your whole travel-nursing career — in one place.

Enter your details once. The dashboards do the rest.

• SEE YOUR CURRENT CONTRACT AT A GLANCE
• Assignment Dashboard — your daily command deck. Mark one contract "Active" and it fills itself: facility, agency, weekly gross, estimated take-home, days remaining, % complete, next license renewal, credentials expiring, housing lease end and your next deadline — all live.
• Assignment Tracker — every contract you've ever taken in one place: agency, facility, city/state, specialty, shift, dates, weekly gross and status. Most travelers juggle years of assignments; now you can see them all.
• KNOW WHAT AN OFFER IS REALLY WORTH
• Pay Package Calculator — the feature travelers love. Enter the taxable base, hours, housing and M&IE stipends and overtime for up to three offers and it shows your estimated weekly AND monthly take-home side by side. Compare the take-home, not the headline.
• Contract Comparison — score every offer on the 12 things that matter (take-home, stipend, location, ratios, cancellation clause, cost of living, gut feel), set your own weights, and it names your best-fit contract automatically.
• NEVER LOSE A CONTRACT TO PAPERWORK
• License Tracker — every state license and compact (NLC) status, CE hours, renewal cycle and cost, with an auto-flag the moment one is expiring.
• Credential & Compliance Tracker — certs, physical, TB, titers, N95 fit and modules, auto-flagged so your packet is always submission-ready.
• Agency & Recruiter Log + Agency Scorecard — rate every agency (recruiter, payroll, communication, housing, compliance, extensions) and build your own rankings over the years.
• HANDLE THE LOGISTICS LIKE A PRO
• Housing Tracker — stipend vs. agency housing, rent, deposit and lease dates for each city.
• Tax Home & Per Diem — the records checklist that keeps your stipends tax-free.
• Moving Timeline + Packing Checklist — reusable for every move, so nothing gets left behind.
• Travel Expense Tracker + Savings & Goals — track the cost of getting there, and put your travel pay to work on the goal you're chasing.
• Favorite Hospitals database — build a personal reference of the units, managers and ratios you'd go back to.
• YOUR EDITABLE RESUME KIT (included — Word + Google Docs)

✦ A LITTLE PROMISE ✦I'm a one-person shop and I read every message. If you get stuck or have a question, reach out — and I'm always improving these, so if you have a suggestion that makes it better, I'll update it and you'll get the improved version.— Renee, MuseAndMakeCoFAQ Q: Is this just a resume template?

A: No — it's a complete career system built for travel nurses. You get editable resume and cover-letter documents PLUS a workbook that tracks every contract, compares pay packages, and organizes your licenses, credentials, housing and taxes. A designed 18-page Travel Nurse Success Guide is included too.

Q: What does the Pay Package Calculator do?

A: You enter the taxable base rate, hours, housing and meal stipends and overtime for up to three offers, and it estimates your weekly and monthly take-home side by side — so you can compare the real value of each contract, not just the headline weekly number.

Q: What is the Contract Comparison tool?

A: You score each offer 1–10 on the factors that matter to you (take-home, stipend, location, ratios, cancellation terms and more) and set how much each one weighs. It calculates a weighted score and names your best-fit contract automatically.

Q: I'm about to take my first travel contract — is this for me?

A: Yes. The sample data shows an experienced traveler, but every tool works whether you're taking your first contract or your fifteenth. Just overtype the examples with your own.

Q: Is the resume ATS-friendly?

A: Yes — the included ATS resume is single-column and built to pass agency and hospital applicant tracking systems. There's also a styled version for recruiters, plus a guide on travel-nurse resume do's and don'ts (listing every EMR, every license, and your float flexibility).

Q: Does it handle taxes?

A: It gives you a Tax Home & Per Diem records checklist and an expense tracker to stay organized, but it is not tax advice. Travel-nurse taxes are personal and strict — always work with a travel-nurse tax professional.

Q: Do I need to be good with spreadsheets?

A: No. You type in the teal cells and everything else calculates itself. There's a How-to-Access guide, and the sample data shows you exactly how each tab works.

Q: Do I need special software?

A: Microsoft Excel and Word, OR a free Google account for Google Sheets & Docs — your choice.

Q: Can I use it on my phone?

A: Yes — once you've copied the workbook into Google Sheets it syncs to your phone, so you can update your assignments and expenses from anywhere.

Q: Will I get anything in the mail?

A: No, everything is an instant digital download.

Q: Can I get a refund?

A: Because these are instant digital downloads, all sales are final. But if anything's wrong with your file, message me and I'll make it right.
