I am currently a nursing student in Australia and finishing my degree next year. My partner may be moving over to Seattle next year due to a job offer. I was wondering how I would get a job as an RN in Seattle and if any of my Nursing degree in Australia is recognised. Is there anything I will need to do in order to be a fully qualified RN to work in Seattle? Thanks!

You need to meet state requirements for International nurse and pass NCLEX. Your transcripts need to show clinical and theory hours in Paeds, Obstetrics, Mental Health and Adult. Then you need to decide what visa you are coming over on that allows you to live and work in the US
