   Yah, I kind of understand what you are getting at Joanna, but I do like the weather here with our four distinct seasons. The winters are cold like they are supposed to be, and the summers are hot like they are supposed to be. :) I'm also saving up qu...

   Also one thing to keep in mind is that overall Australia has a much higher cost of living than Canada. Like I have just over 2 years of experience, and I make just over 30 dollars an hour, but to go to Australia and to make 30 dollars an hour, and to...

   There may be many many agencies Joanna, but I got my job by contacting the hospital directly, and so did everyone I work with. I have never even worked with an agency nurse filling in because we were short. So I am really not sure what role the age...

   Peace all I got an e-mail from them in early December stating they have received my application, and the next step is a criminal history check. I have not heard from them since, I don't think they will e-mail me to tell me the check is done, and now...

   So, I have not heard anything from AHPRA for quite some time. Last they contacted me, they said they were doing a criminal history check. Hopefully, we will be moving on to the next step early next month. But life goes on here, with working full-tim...

   That's disappointing, but I guess you cannot have everything. Here we do 75 hours of work every 2 weeks, and with my schedule in 12 weeks time I have averaged 75 hours in a 2 weeks period, but some are more, some are less.

   Hi. I could not find an e-mail address at all even when i clicked on the postings to get more information. I guess I don't have to worry about the grade system right now. And over here hospitals hire nurses directly, full-time, part-time, and casu...

    Sorry, two more questions. I have been looking at the website for Queensland Health. Each job listed has a name and phone number with it. Would this be the manger, or a contact in human resources? Also, i prefer to go the e-mail route, as I tend to ...

    Peace all. I also have another question. We don't have nursing agencies in Canada to find part-time or full-time jobs. So its not something I really know how to deal with. I prefer to deal with hospitals directly, and if unsuccessful go the agency r...

    Thanks so much Carol, and Talaxandra. You have certainly helped. So the kinda place I am looking at is not very rural, and remote, because I don't think I have the correct set of skills for that. But Im also not looking the suburbs. I was thinking on...
