In my opinion, Gordon or Gibo are the only two feasible choices in the presidential lineup. The others are just..bleeehhh.. Anyway, this topic isn't even related to nursing, there are other more appropriate sites for this.

This made me smile,:)

It can be disheartening..come next board exams, another influx of newly registered nurses will join us, making it much harder for all of us..

I agree with everything galvtexas said; it wouldn't be unpatriotic to be professional when it comes to the workplace, or any place for that matter when in the company of english-speaking friends.

You're in MN right? And you don't have a visa?

There's simply too many nurses here in the Philippines. I don't understand how people are still enrolling in nursing schools nowadays when there clearly aren't enough jobs to go around.

Hi, just a quick question for nclex passers out there. Is the nclex result subject to expiration, like the IELTs? I'm having second thoughts wether to take the nclex or not due to the ongoing retrogression. Hoping for your thoughts regarding this matter. Thanks!

So, any June 2009 board passers here have any luck finding a job yet?

Is the Prometric Exam a requirement for all Saudi-bound nurses? Or does it depend on the employer?

Count me in!

Hi sashi_18! Me & zstsc are in the same situation; June board passer looking for work. Are you already there in Australia? Do you have any recommendations regarding which state to apply for?

I second that. I really hate this particular trend in the Philippines, it's very similar to another word I dislike..."Nepotism'..

I wasn't imposing anything, I just voiced my concern on the fact that out of all the nurses who have come to UK on this program, there hasn't been anyone (aside from nurseinuk's latest post) who have come forward on this forum to share with us there experiences there. I wasn't dissing the program nor imposing my opinion on others, & I certainly didn't mean to sound sarcastic. I was actually considering signing up for this too, but after reading this thread I have, as of now, decided against it. But will reconsider of course; nothing is set in stone And yes, I am fully aware of the nursing situation here in the Philippines and how hard it is to make a decent living here, and for a lot of us going abroad is the answer. I am one of those, and I'm glad that forums like allnurses.com are around nowadays that help us weigh the options available to us. Just because someone has an opinion different from yours doesn't make it less valid..It's just that, an opinion. Hopefully I've made myself clear regarding this & any misunderstanding..

I'm concerned about this too. I mean, this program has been going on for quite some time, right? Why hasn't anyone who's already in the UK through this program share with us the good news..

Thanks Julia! I just looked up Asian hospital on the web, it's located in Mutinlupa? A bit far from me (I'm from Bulacan by the way :wink2:) but I'm willing to relocate if that's what it takes...thanks again!
