Anyone know Ontario based nursing recruiting agencies??

Published

Hello! Hopefully someone can help me...

I'm currently studying full-time in New Zealand towards a Bachelor of Nursing but would really like to move to Ontario to work as a nurse.

I'm wondering two things:

1. Does anyone actually know anyone who's transferred into a Canadian university nursing program from a New Zealand university nursing program? I'm inquired into eight Ontario nursing programs about transferring to finish my degree in Canada but haven't heard back from most of them. Just wondering if anyone's actually done that and if you recommend it??

2. Does anyone know an Ontario based nursing recruiting company? Another possibility would be that I could finish my degree in NZ and then go through the registration process in Ontario. However, if I could find some support through a recruiting agency for travel costs/registration fees/possible further study costs to be eligible to sit the Canadian exam/etc that would be a HUGE help!!

Thanks for any advice!

Cheers!! :)

Specializes in Medical and general practice now LTC.

Doubt you can transfer any credit from one nursing school to another.

The paperwork is easy to complete, there is no need to use an agency can be done on your own and with an employer

You are going to need to have the BSN as well as pass your local boards before they will look at your application. Much has already been written here about the steps needed to work in Ontario. Please just do a search for the already posted information.

Best of luck to you.
