There are many places to see in this fabulous city. It would be impossible to offer an accurate guide to the city within such a short work frame…but this doesn’t deter us from trying and offer you a small insight into the City by The Bay!

Around the city

Golden Gate Bridge

The Golden Gate Bridge is likely one of the most iconic bridges in the world – famous for better (its incredibly accurate maintenance and design) and worse (the number of people who chose this spot to commit their final actions on Earth).

Alcatraz

Between truth and fiction, Alcatraz became a true legend. This prison facility became one of the most popular touristic attraction in the world, and it is definitely one not to be missed!

Waterfront

If you like the buzz of the city and the energy it produces, this is the spot for you. From Fisherman’s Wharf, to Financial District and Union Square, this is the area for shopping, restaurants, bars and hotels. Spend a day downtown and you’ll definitely get the vibe of the city.

Food & Drinks

The Mission District

The Mission district is a neighborhood with an eclectic dining scene offering anything from earthy latin-inspired flavor to modern and creative ideas.

Zeitgeist

A favorite watering hole in the city, Zeitgest will charm you with its street-smart vibes and substantial selection of draft beers!

Entertainment

SFMOMA

The San Francisco Museum of Modern Art is one of the most forward-thinking and innovative museums in the world, hosting interesting art, entertainment and culture every week.

Explore the Bay area!

The SF bay area is one of the most incredible spots in the world. Take a day trip and drive along the coastline or enjoy a boat ride out to seize its spirit! You won’t regret it!

AT&T Park

Home of the World Champion San Francisco Giants. Located right on the San Francisco Bay, this park is a sight to be seen. Yes, the team is great and you’ll see an awesome game. But let’s be real. You came here for the experience and view.

Foodies rejoice! You can still get your fully loaded hot dog and garlic fries, but they step their game up a bit here. Stop by Crazy Crab’z and get their signature fresh Dungeness Crab Sandwich, with a mound of fresh crab piled on garlic butter brushed grilled sourdough. There’s also a Farmer’s Market Cart, a Mexican restaurant and a Caribbean BBQ. Delish! Not your grandpa’s ballpark food menu.

At Axis, sometimes it's easier to describe ourselves as what we're not.

We're not your average corporate "big box" staffing company. We're not sleazy business people in bad suits pushing around resumes, lying or overselling positions. We're not a tiny, inexperienced company either, we have the same amount of nationwide travel nursing jobs as those giant, corporate staffing companies. We've been placing top talent in adventurous careers since 2004 and we can prove we're different from the rest.
