people who came here with experience from the Philippines needed all a very intense and prolonged orientation time, because the systems are so different. So unfortunatly that doesn't make you attractive for employers here, but as I said there's no re...

I just find it kinda sad that someone has no trust in their own abilities, and is applying x-times in x-places to avoid SEC. 5cats

You cannot stay and work unless you have a visa that allows you to work, everything else is illegal. 5cats

First of all I assume you signed a contract with your employer who sponsored your work permit, if you quit your work your visa becomes unvalid and you have to leave the country. You would need to find an employer for a new work permit and In Saskatc...

You need to find out why you were denied. You probably need to show stronger ties to your homecountry so the immigration officer is satisfied that you leave Canada after the exam. Call your visa office and find out if possible. 5cats

I don't understand why you would even think about spending money that you could save for an agency that you don't need. I really don't get this. 5cats

Even the cities are rural, in a way that they are small, many people still know each other. If we would have a recipe against poverty, drug abuse and gangs it would be paradise. Some of our cities have problems you'd think they are talking about the...

There is no hiring freeze, most jobs are gone, exceptions are specialized areas, but I had contact with someone who applied with plenty of experience, and that was the answer he was given, no IEN recruitment, don't know if it's different when you are...

No jobs for IEN's. Neither city I believe would you call cosmopolitan. 5cats

Maybe you should consider to take the local board exam in the philippines? 5cats

Where do they offer employment? How do they offer to sit the exam???? The college/association of nurses in the province where you want to live and work has to assess your education and will decide, an agency has nothing to do with it. Many place don'...

I would make sure you are eligible for CRNE and have a chance of finding a job. Otherwise you will struggle, job situation here is poorly and new IEN applicants have no chance right now of getting a job. Exception might be if you want to work up nort...

Why don't you ask SRNA what documents you need to send? 5cats

If you found the job at a restaurant tough, how are you gonna survive in a hospital setting? Maybe you should think about a new career something that you like and are able to do and cope with. 5cats

We still got a free meal what was nice, and I agree the thought is what counts. Hope everyone had a nice christmas. 5cats

The job situation in SK is not so good right now, and chances to be hired as an IEN are close to zero, so no reason to worry about the long assessing time. 5cats

SK started more than a year ago with SEC, and I actually had to do one. It was ok. 5cats

To be able to review the validity they will need enough data and some time. SEC was only implemented, not sure how many IEN's are actually taking it, when you look at posts here, people are trying to avoid it. Plus they need response from employers a...

So have they told you what exactly is missing, have you phoned them? I don't know if the form they want has changed, but it used to be just the general areas of nursing divided in theory and practice hours, a good estimate is allowed. Some hours are ...

You don't get a degree in Germany, they are still doing 3 year diploma courses at nursing schools who are affiliated with a hospital. Since the system has changed, I would imagine you will be lacking hours for US registration. 5cats

If you allready know that you are lacking hours, I would make those up first. I would think a US college would be better, than looking in the UK, what is very difficult, I only know Brighton used to offer something, but only with an agency, and I thi...

It all depends on board requirements for foreign educated nurses, even when you are a US citizen, you are and will allways be foreign educated and have to meet requirements, and those can change anytime. And so theoretically they might want to see a ...

Yeah, I had chills starting same evening and felt "under the weather" for a couple of days, and so some of my collegues, but we all got 2 shots, seasonal and H1N1 so that might be the reason. We had a mobile cart going around or you could line up at ...

Depending on the state where you want to work in, you don't have a choice, there are still some who do require the exam. Suggest for everybody to do research and then decide which program they need. For the mistakes in those booklets, best would be t...
