Hi everyone, anybody here who knows any agency for Filipino nurses in NJ or NY? I'm a graduate of nursing from the Philippines who holds a PR status in USA, has an NJ license and is currently looking for a job. I've been looking for jobs since I got here last Sept and they're all requiring for a previous hosp experience (which i don't have due to the unavailability of jobs for nurses back in the Philippines). I'm hoping I could find any agency that can help me here in NJ with my situation. Thanks in advance.

Moved to the international forum as nothing to do with working in the Philippines
I think you will find many nurses especailly new grads are struggling in NY and NJ for work. Finding an agency may be hard as I believe agencies generally prefer experience
