Aussies in NYC

Published

Hi guys,

Just interested to know if any of you work with nurses from Australia? I am an Australian wanting to work in America and I was wondering if there are any other Aussies around who work with you and what you thought of their nursing skills.

Also I am looking at moving to around the Brooklyn area, as I have friends who live there, and wondering what sort of pay check you take home at the end of the month for a qualified RN.

If anyone can help me out in the employment seeking department that would be great as well. Are nursing jobs advertised in the weekly news papers or some other method of advertising. Would it be possible to get a job quite quickly or do you guys think it would take a little while.

Wish me luck and thank you in advance:nuke:

I am an Aussie and live in NYC. I am not an RN yet, I start Nursing School in the Fall. I wanted to say Hi :flowersfo and wish you luck in your travels over here. If you go to the NY Times website they will have jobs posted and salary.com will give you a guide on salary.

Cheers!

Hi nyassie,

how did you end up living in nyc? Im looking into all the information at the moment and it seems really hard to get a green card to work in America. Maybe you could give me some tips on how you went about the process. How is your training going? I found the training that I had really enjoyable and challenging at the same time. Do you miss Australia? Im living in Sydney at the moment. I'd love to know how you ended up in New York and what made you go and live in America in the first place. I think I should have been born American. My uncles have all lived over there at some point in time and loved it. I think it's in my blood.

Anyway thank you for your help and I will look up those web sites and continue my search for the answers I need.

Take care
