Hi, I am a foreign nurse who is interested in working in the USA, I know this is a difficult process because of the exams. Despite this I am passing those, and now I would like to know which recruitment agency is the best to work with them and the fastest as well, in getting your objective of working as an RN. I hope that some of you could help me with this question. thank you

Hello and welcome
Would suggest you read the sticky Primer at the top of this forum as will give you all the info you need for working in the USA. There is a retrogression looming and not sure if your country will be affected which will have a delay on your process. There is no quick way to get to work in the US and with applying to a state etc you can be looking at a process of 12 months or more especially if from a country affected with retrogresion. There are a few threads on here about retrogression also
Good luck

I don't think the primer will help. The OP said they have already passed all requirements and just needs an employer, from what I read. Is that correct? Where do you want to work?
Thank you for your responses and interest in this matter. Well I haven't read the Premier, because I can't localize it... I'm interested in working in Michigan, (I have the letter of elegibility from that state) but if another employer from another state is willing to sponsor me, it is welcome. Please help me, how can I proceed?
I would suggest pass NCLEX (if not already done) and then approach the hospitals where you want to live and see if they would be willing to petition you for your greencard. Your employer is the one who has to file the paperwork
