The office staff are always friendly, the app is easy to use. One thing I've found with agencies in the past is that they can pester you when it comes to them trying to cover shifts. However I didn't feel this with Primcura, you can put your availability on the app and they're flexible and understanding.

The recruitment process wasn’t lengthy and I was informed of my application’s progress throughout. I learned a lot during their in-house training, as I took a short break from healthcare.
