what is the easiest way to get a job in Canada as RN??


Hello all
I’m a new member in allnurses.com. I’m an undergraduate student of nursing in Hashemite University (Jordan) and I am in my graduation semester. I have prepared my self for passing the NCLEX exam as well as the CGFNS since two years. But I found that it is very difficult to find a job in USA without previous experience which I don’t have, so I am now studying for CRNE. I have been training in ICU since 4 months.
I have some questions regarding working in Canada:
1. How Can I get a permission to work as registered nurse in Canada?
2. Can you tell me what is the procedure must be followed to get a permanent residency in Canada as well as a job as RN?

Thanks all

I have moved your thread to the International Forum.

Would recommend that you take the time to do some reading on this forum before starting to do anything. Each province is responsible for licensure, with their own requirements to be met. Canada requires that you hold a license in your own country before they will consider you for licensure there. Much has already been written here on the subject, please just take the time to do some reading about getting licensed in Canada as well as immigration requirements.

The experience that you have as a student does not count as RN experience, but rather only as student experience, or training experience.

Best of luck to you.
