I am not sure - you could work as a CNA.... Can you work as a graduate nurse in the Phillipines, or do you need to pass a licensing exam before you could do that?

The original poster is not from the US, but is from the Philippines. They are unable to work there with the graduate nurse designation as you can in only a few states now in the US.

Working in the US is not even an option now as it will be years before there are any visas available.

Moving this thread to the Philippine Forum where it is more appropriate.

Until you have your results of your exam, you do not know if you have passed that exam or not. You cannot work in the role of an RN until you have an actual license in your country, volunteer or for pay.

Currently, there are many more graduates than there are jobs available. Please be aware that a volunteer position there does not count as actual work experience when applying for a job someplace else. And with the number of applicants that wish to work in the US, you are looking at years before you will even have a chance of a visa for the US.

My suggestion would be to consider another country and get some experience. The CNA and the other positions that we have in the US are not available over there, and they must have an actual license before they can work in a hospital, no working without the license and registration.

There are also many more students than what you are used to seeing here. Currently more than 632,000 in over 400 nursing programs.
