retronurse23

Ive heard bad things about this agency be aware that most of the nurses that they have deployed are indentured servants to said agency please do some research regarding the said agency and also be aware that retrogression is ongoing since 2006 and at the moment there seems to be no end in sight.

Thank you I will do just that, so how's fressenius as an employer

Is fressenius hiring right now? How does the employment process goes does this involves training with no salary like majority of the hospital are doing right now?

I have noticed that Suzanne is not anymore posting any new messages, Is she still active in this forum? Anyway I do wish her all the best she has been extremely informative as well as all the moderators. Silverdragon I see that you are now in Nova Scotia, I have been conferred eligibility to write the CRNE do you know any hospital/ health agency willing to hire nurses under the graduate nurse position? And how is the job market in Nova Scotia?

I have a local nursing license and an IELTS certificate and is now in the process of completing the required documents for New Zealand nursing registration, do you still need to take a qualifying exam for registration?

Hi everyone,I'am a filipino nurse can anyone tell me the normal processing time for application for registration for New Zealand, considering that I have passed the IELTS.

So it's near to impossible to work in the US as of now? Well that sucks because many of the nurses here, including me have passed the NCLEX and many other foreign examination which have entitled us to secure a visa screen, and I also have been hired by a US hospital and promised me that they would petition for me to get an immigrant visa so as to work for them. Well that's not fair now is it? because we have invested not only out time, money but also our effort to pass those examination.

Yeah, its true because of oversupply of graduates and the retrogression in the US, majority of the nurses who have passed the licensure examination for the US cannot leave as of now, thus many nurses cannot be accommodated in many of the tertiary hospital. what's the result many of the newly licensed nurse are having their volunteer program, in which they have to pay to be able to work, pathetic isn't. And the sad part of which is these volunteer programs don't even count as working experience when you're applying for job abroad. I myself have experienced this first hand, just got a job from a tertiary hospital and I must have applied to every hospital you can think of. My advice for those who still wants to pursue nursing is, dont even bother try other profession, but if its' the profession that you want to pursue, good luck and just hope that all things will be better after you graduate.

is H 1 a visa like eb3 affected by retrogression?

Hello, I would just like to ask if working visa for the US is affected by retrogression?

Thank you for the advice

thank you suzanne for the information, yes it realy is hard finding a nursing job in the Philippines because many of us are chasing the elusive american dream, by the way i have my US nursing license, I have passed my nclex and my license is registered at vermont, do california recognized vermont license? thank you again for being patient with us as we do not have much information regarding the visa retrogression.

Thank you (suzanne) for the previous answer to my inquiry, May I know how long does this retrogression last I am a US RN with CGFNS IELTS and visa screen certificate, I also have a employer petitioning for me at california, my petition has just been filed at the uscis this month, thank you.
