where to work then? its sooo hard to get a job as a nurse here in manila. i graduated last year and am now working for one of the biggest corporations in manila. (it is one of the top 50 corporations in asia). i am a nurse but i am working in the corporate world. i am paid 15k a month which is twice more (i think) than nurses in private hospitals are paid. i only work 8 hours a day, mondays to fridays. I love my job cause i dont really do anything but i get paid well. and in addition, the place where i live is only 2 blocks away from the office. yup i know, very convenient. But I really want to work in a hospital... any hospital. even if they dont pay as well as my job now. I submitted my resume to 3 hospitals already here in manila but i havent received a call from any of them. i was really hoping to work in california where some of my relatives are, but with the retrogression in place, i think i'll have to wait a while. I'd like to work in Singapore but i read in the website of their board of nursing that u have to have at least 3 years hospital work experience. UK is also another choice but u also have to have at least 1 year hospital work experience. is there any way or chance of me getting a job there without any hospital work experience?

so why is it sooo hard to get a job as a nurse in the Philippines? particularly in manila. why aren't hospitals hiring?
