Working with Lauren
“I’ve worked with Premier for the last 2 years or so and have had such a lovely experience doing travel nursing, particularly because of my recruiter Lauren. She is insanely attentive and knowledgeable, and she is so very very kind. While my experience as a whole with Premier has been amazing, I have to give credit to Lauren, who has been the top reason I’ve stayed with them for so long. There is never a question that goes unanswered, and if she can’t personally answer it, she will ask client managers and other coworkers until she knows the answer. She even helped me figure out what I needed to do once I was married and had to change my name for the nursing board! I highly recommend Premier as an organization and if anyone gets a chance to work with Lauren, you won’t be disappointed!” – Matilyn | Rehab, RN
“I’ve had 4 recruiters over the years and Lauren Kermendy is in a completely different sport. Her cadence with check-ins is just right, her tone via text and over the phone is ideal and her genuine care for me, my wife, and my life in general is superb. She is far more concerned with how well a placement fits my goals and preferences than she is with anything else and that has built a level of trust, truly, that I share with my closest friends. I would recommend Lauren for any professional endeavor without reservation. She is a colleague that all should aspire to!” – Steve | Med/Surg RN
“I’ve worked with Premier Medical staffing for 3 years and it’s a great company. My recruiter Lauren Kermendy is the absolute best. I will continue with the company because she works so hard for me and is a great communicator. Premier and Lauren have supported me and helped me be the best every step of the way.” – Collen | OR Surg Tech
