Hello Nancy, I was just wondering how well you did on your job hunting? I will be leaving for BC soon and I hope it won't be very difficult for me to find a job on temporary permit.
Good day. I will be migrating to Canada soon. I submitted my credentials to CRNBC and am waiting for my eligibility/temporary license to be issued. Hopefully, I will receive it before I leave for Canada. Do you think I will have difficulty finding a job in BC considering that I have only recently graduated and have no hospital experience?

I am new. I am sorry for my silly quesiton but how do i get a temporary permit?
First, you have to apply for licensure with a province of your choice. The requirements are in the CRNA website. Once you are eligible to take the CRNE exam, you may apply for a temporary permit.

I really don't think you'll find anything like that. Hospital budgets are cut to the bone and even continuing education for staff already employed is usually left to the individual... It's all on YOUR time and YOUR dime. It's very unlikely that a health region would pay for any upgrading or refresher needed, never mind sponsor immigration of an entire family. The money just isn't there. They'd be willing to pay some relocation costs for someone they could put to work the minute they clear Customs but that's about it. Even Alberta isn't paying for those sorts of expenses, and Alberta is the wealthiest province. Sorry.
