BSNSN

Hi, I am looking to migrate to Australia and/or New Zealand. The Australian cities I had in mind are Sydney, Melbourne and Perth. The New Zealand cities I had in mind are Wellington and Auckland. I graduated this month with my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from a US university. I also have a Bachelor of Business Administration degree from another US university. I have several years of experience as a marketing analyst and as a nursing assistant. I also have 2 years experience as a nursing tutor/ educator assistant. I am scheduled to sit for the NCLEX-RN examination next month. I am enrolled in a Masters of Science Nursing program right now. - What are some options for me in terms of visa? - How do I go about applying for these options? - Do I need to get registered with AHPRA there or will my registration in the US be sufficient? - Are there any nursing hiring agencies you recommend I contact? - Should I apply for the masters degree programs there? Which universities have the best nursing programs there? I am very confused. Any advice is appreciated! Thank you very much.

aabbccdd, I would like to ask you about my situation. What is the best way for me to contact you? I am a BSN student who is on F1 visa in Arizona. I will be graduating in May 2012. This is my second bachelor's degree. I attained my Bachelor of Business Administration degree in 2005. Any advice is helpful and much needed. I am very stressed . Thanks!

I am also in the same situation. I am a BSN nursing student on F1 for now and will be graduating in May 2012. This is my second bachelor's degree. I have a bachelor's degree in Business Administration since 2005. 1) What are the job opportunities available for me for H1B sponsorship given that I have a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration and also soon to have my Bachelor's degree in Nursing? 2) I am looking to obtain a job in hospitals in "not-so-hot" locations in the US example rural towns. Any hospitals or agencies you know of that can sponsor someone with my credentials? 3) I am also interested in contacting any nursing recruitment agencies that can assist. If you know of any, please let me know. Currently, I live in Arizona but I am willing to relocate anywhere. And also can work in any speciality. Any advice is helpful! Thanks!
