Hello.
I am a senior nursing student (and an International F1 student) studying at a 4 year nursing program.
I know that retrogression is causing many people out of work. (trust me, I hear stories of new grads not landing a job on a weekly basis nowadays). I know and accept the fact that it may be even hard for me to land a job for my OPT. I am well aware of the current economical situation in the US, and Canada. I have back up plans. I can go back to my own country if things all fail.
HOWEVER, I do want to try my best and see what options I have and see what other people have done, even if the chances are limited and might be close to nothing.
I want to see what people have done for their OPT.
If any International student nurses had a job for OPT, what jobs did you have? What were the strengths that you pointed out in your interview to present yourself as a good candidate?
Thank you
