hello nurses,
help needed for couple questions about bridge staffing inc.!!
how do we come to know whether this agency is good or not? ( i found this agency online and not through the words of mouth)
do you guys know bridge staffing inc.? how is the reputation of this agency?
when nursing agency tell you they would help you get a "green card," is that real? that seems too good to be true. as you know, so many people out there are struggling for getting this card, but it seems so easy for " bridge staffing inc. " to get a green card for their nurses. what do you think??
please nurses, feel free to throw in any thoughts!! your response is
needed!!

hi, no idea about the agency but i can answer your another question about green card.

it is true that staffing agencies can help you get green card. the agencies help you in getting green card by paying the fees for the exams, finding a placement for you(employer in the usa), processing your immigration documents(paying the fee for lawyer and visa fees), bringing you to the states(paying the airfare, and temporary housing).

in return, you will help them by signing a contract to work with them for a specified length of time, allowing them to take some percentage of money from your salary for the period you work with them.

please be careful while choosing the agency. read stickies on the top of this forum. read about what is a good contract. many of our fellow nurses have shared their experience with agencies.

the whole process can be done without help of these agencies also, but you have to pay the fees.

I am very confused here, you are asking about this agency, yet have you attended nursing school yet? In another post, you said that you were just going to be starting.................
