   Thanks for the advise...Just wondering if you're familiar with the Hiring Nurse Group? They are the ones I'm dealing with. They also offered me a position in a psychiatric hospital. I'm quite hesitant about the offer. But I'm really having difficulty...

3. Visa Screening Certificate

   leeh replied to leeh's topic in NCLEX

   Yes I requested a copy of my result to be sent to ICHP. I also have an account with Cgfns but I guess it's not updated. I called them up this morning and I was put "on hold" for 30mins...then the operator told me he'll call me as soon as he finds my ...

4. Visa Screening Certificate

   leeh replied to leeh's topic in NCLEX

   That's really fast huh! I just hope I get lucky...By the way, do I need to ask ETS to send a copy of my TSE result? I took the TSE last year but I'm not sure if CGFNS has a copy of my result on file.

   Hi, eperey. The rate that they gave me excludes night differential...I'm not sure if there's a weekend differential though. If you don't mind, which hospital in LA gave you that rate? Did you go through an agency?

   It was the recruiter who gave me this rate. The company also promised to shoulder the lawyer's fees for the processing of my petition. Also promised to give me 3k as sign-on/relocation bonus...What do you think about it?

   Hi! I'm a foreign nurse with 6mos experience in my country. Just would like to know the going rate for RN's in L.A. I'm being offered 23.8/hr. Is this fair enough? I would highly appreciate your comments.

   leeh replied to yousev's topic in California

   Dear Kabayan, I myself am confused of what you really want for yourself. If you still intend to work in the US, I think you did the right thing. You take the Nclex and english exam first before coming back. Having a multiple visa is an advantage on y...

11. SHIFT DIFFERENTIAL AND TIME & A HALF...please define

    leeh replied to leeh's topic in NCLEX

    Thanks for that, batmik. Your definitions gave me a clearer idea now. Some more questions though, please bear with me. Is TIME AND A HALF mandatory to all institutions? Is it applied in excess of 8hrs if I go on a 12hr night shift duty? What if the r...

    leeh posted a topic in NCLEX

    Hi! What's the difference between the two? Does time and a half apply to all night shifts? When does shift differential apply? I also heard about the term "blended rate". Please enlighten me... I know this is a simple question...I feel dumb:uhoh3: n...

    Yeah I've heard stories about agencies getting cut from nurse's salaries. That's why I'm keen in choosing which one I should commit to. Thanks for the precaution, suzanne! :)
