Target : Fresno, California


Hi there guys. I'm not sure whether this is the right place to post this thread but anyway....I'm an R.N here in the Philippines, I just passed the IELTS recently, I've applied for my VisaScreen already and I'll be taking the CGFNS exam on July 12 and the NCLEX on August. So the question is this: I really want to work at Fresno, CA since my sister (also a nurse) is based there. What's the best strategy? I'm thinking of asking my sister to ask her fellow Filipino nurses there what agency or recruitment center did they go to that placed them at Fresno so that I'll be able to trace that agency and apply there. Is this the best way to do it? Can anyone help? Thanks very very much!

Ask your sister to inquire about the hospital directly hiring you so you won't have to go through agencies.
