Canadian applying to NYP

Published

I'm looking to relocate from Canada to New York City and have been applying at various hospitals. I have 2 years of experience in perinatal/med-surg float pool at a teaching hospital, and have my NY state license.

Anytime I submit an application to NYP, it comes back immediately saying "application received; do not meet qualifications". According to the job postings, I should qualify for these positions. After playing around, I determined that I was being screen based on saying that I am NOT a US citizen, permanent resident, or temporary resident. Although I would be eligible to work in the USA under TN status, I am unable to successfully apply to these jobs. Has any one else come across this? Any tips/ideas as to how I can still be considered for these positions?

Thanks a million.

It happened to me too! I'm currently working under a TN visa in Florida and I have my NY license as well and don't need sponsorship. I'm going to call them and ask if there is another way to apply. It's frustrating!

This is really unfair. I am facing similar conditions, were you able to contact them? How did you proceed?

Thanks.

I haven't been able to find a telephone number for the HR department. It's so frustrating. If I get more info, I'll pass it along

I would find out where HR is and physically go there if you cannot find a phone number and speak to someone. Good luck!
