Default Re: Questions
You need to consider the cost-of-living in each area, the pay will reflect that. Yes NY city and California pay more but it costs a lot more to live in those places. Food, gas, housing, and utilities are much more expensive there.
Sorry I don't have answers to your immigration questions but would welcome you as a co-worker in the future.
I work as a travel nurse within the USA, I admire you for being brave enough to travel outside your country.

Arrow Re: Questions
thank u, dear snowfreeze
i thought about the costs yesterday, and even here, in israel i prefer big city with all it's costs
i thought about doing CGFNS here, and move to CA- looks the most simple way...and then to do the NCLEX-RN.
does it make sense?- what d'u think?
