Hello all! Does anyone here have an idea or experience regarding having a job in new york eventhough their rn license havent arrived yet. Im here as a permanent resident last month amd an nclex passer already in the state of california with 4years experience as a nicu nurse. Is there a chance for me to get hired as a nurse in new york eventhough gh i dont have my license yet.. Is there any agency or institution that assists international nurses like me? Thanks!

Have you started the process of CVS? you do realise it can take over 4 months to go through the process and even up to 8 months before you have a decision from the BON and they issue a license. Until you get the license you can not work as a nurse

Specializes in Complex pedi to LTC/SA & now a manager.

Passing the NCLEX for CABRN does not = licensed nurse in the US. If you do not have an active NY license your application will not be considered by employers regardless of previous experience.
