However, it
is very rare for a nursing graduate to immediately fly overseas after passing the
board exam because most foreign employers require nurses to have a work experience.
Also it is recommended that a nurse should first get a local job to get an experience
that will prepare him/her for the challenges of working
overseas.
A recruitment
agency that is licensed by the Philippine Overseas Employment Administration (POEA)
posted an advertisement at WorkAbroad.ph for 100 registered nurses.
According to the former Ambassador of The Philippines to Italy, Philippe
Lhuillier, Italy
really needs to hire foreign nurses. The Ambassador said, “They really need
nurses. There are hospitals, at least five of them near our embassy, that have
closed shop because of the shortage in nurses.”
Identity theft happened when an
individual rob someone’s identity by using his or her name, address, bank
account, picture, etc. to conduct unlawful activities. The
consequence of being a victim of an identity theft is serious because it is
your name and reputation at stake. You may find yourself in deep debt, be
blacklisted in a foreign country or simply be involved in a scandal or scam you
are totally unaware of.
If
you are a registered nurse with hospital work experience- then there is a big
chance for you to be employed in one of the favorite destinations of overseas
Filipino workers (OFWs) – Canada.
Two cities of Canada-Saskatchewan
and British Columbia
urgently need to hire registered nurses.
Qualified
Filipino nurses who wish to work in United Kingdom (UK) now have a chance to fulfill
their dream. This is because a POEA-licensed recruitment agency, the
Greenfields International Manpower Services, Inc. is seeking registered nurses
that are between 23 to 40 years old. They are set to recruit 300 Staff Nurses
to join the National Health Service in United Kingdom.
The high
demand is reflected with the amount of salary that is being offered to Filipino
nurses. A Filipino nurse in America
earns Php 250,000 or more a month. For this reason, there is a notion that
nurses need to pay a big amount of placement fee.
All Filipino nursing graduates who have successfully passed the National Licensure Examination (NLE) are entitled to be given a professional license or ID. This legal document is very important as it is a proof that you are capable and competent to practice your profession in the country.

events can also help experienced workers who are looking for greener pastures

With its aging and relatively low
population (only 4 million as compared to almost 100 million in the
Philippines), New Zealand is a country that holds lots of employment
and migration opportunities for professional and skilled foreign
workers including nurses.
The United Kingdom
one of the common and favored destinations of Filipino nurses is set to
implement a new and stricter policy regarding their student visa guidelines. This
news may negatively affect the Filipino nurses who opt to take the study and
work program of this European country.
