  1. help me!

    Regarding Alda, I don't know them, but they need to update their website, there are no job openings for nurses in Alberta right now.
  2. Visa Bulletin Oct 09

    Makes me wonder where and how they discovered all those applications, you would have thought that those people got their visas long time ago, eh? I guess they need to change the system, otherwise it's...
  3. help me!

    What is so confusing about it?? It's all pretty normal I find.
  4. Tragic death-NOT due to swine flu

    The idea that infectious people shouldn't go and sit in waiting rooms is good I think, but obviously they need to be seen, so GP's need to get the N95 out and go and see their patients at home! If...
  5. I doubt that such a hospital does exist, but even when...you still need your spanish. And I suppose there's some kind of registration process as a nurse, no? So I would suggest study spanish and then...
  6. I sincerely hope that you know that "brown" is a colour and not a race!
  7. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    I did sent you an email, so hopefully you received it. regarding SRNA there are moving into their new offices now, nothing is going on there for at least another week I guess, and there are behind the...
  8. What is better? IELTS or TOEFL iBT?

    It doesn't matter which one you take as long as both are accepted wherever you are applying. Some boards in the States only accept toefl, so you need to check that out.
  9. OPT to H1B in NYC? lawyers?

    Nobody is experienced after a few months work, what is this for a question. It's time for you to face reality.
  10. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    Suggest you follow up with SRNA in a couple of weeks, since you only have 2 posts so far, you can pm me (I believe) but not receive any messages, so I would need a little bit more info. If you want to...
  11. International Student Advisors 4U

    Nobody can make that decision for you, but when I read that you have to pay getting an interview, OMG I cannot believe that, how degenerating is all this. I just think it gives you a certain...
  12. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    Yep, I meant which area here in SK or which hospital you are interested in, you can pm if you want.
  13. Bringing nurses into Canada

    i actually find your post offensive, because i cannot see any indication for your harsh answer, the statement in janfrn post was only that there is an oversupply of nurses, what makes the philippines...
  14. Information Regarding TN Visas

    You have to be a citizen with a valid passport, it doesn't say anything about the length of time being a citizen, so you can be a new citizen. That makes sense, it takes several years of residency to...
  15. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    Have you decided yet, of you want to try on your own and which area you are interested in?
  16. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    You are barking at the wrong tree, I'm not Canadian, I'm no racist and I don't think you know what racism is. And it's you who is not acting professional.
  17. While this program does sound interesting, I wish more would be done for prevention. There's even a lack of basic understanding here with many people, and you don't need money or more money to change...
  18. saunders

    I know it's out of context, but why do you bother with nclex right now when you are on such a tight budget?
  19. OPT to H1B in NYC? lawyers?

    As a newgrad you don't qualify for H1B. There was a similar thread about a week or 2 ago, if you use the search function or go back some threads you should find it. You need to consider to go back to...
  20. 212(c) visa screen

    Mmh, maybe ring them before you send anything and clarify that. The problem with that online form is, once you've sent it, you cannot make any changes, and if something should be missing it's a pain...
  21. There are no LPN's in Germany, and the system is very very different compared to the US system. In Germany you need to present a 3 years nursing course with a certain amount of hours. There used to be...
  22. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    I don't have to cheer up, I'm quite cheerful allready, thank you very much. And it's not my opinion, those are facts presented by my coworkers who were precepting the new nurses from the Philippines....
  23. anyone registering for SRNA or in Saskatchewan?

    That was within the big recruitment drive as you said, not sure if this will be ongoing, since the experience so far is not good. A good indicator for that as well is the lack of posts from the guys...
  24. 212(c) visa screen

    ok, scanned that handbook again. First I found item 13, there you can mark your 212 certificate, it's the category, and I'm not sure where you got that info about no academic records? When you look...
  25. Reputable Staffing/Recruitment Agencies

    Yes it can be a different hospital. And yes normally you"owe" them a couple of years. Depends on the hospital what they want, but around 2 years I think would be reasonable.
