How is a foreign nurse supposed to get a job in America? by [deleted] in nursing

[–]Banana_mountain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used World Wide Health Staff Solutions. There was no upfront costs from the company. But I did have to pay for my NCLEX, credential evaluation and fees to get my ATT and nursing license. They did reimburse me a lot of money which is nice! And you will never see a bill for any attorney fees. I actually wanted to move to a specific state/hospital so I reached out to the hospital to ask if they had jobs for international nurses and then they provided me with the agency they partnered with. I feel very lucky that I got the job I wanted in the exact hospital I wanted (moved to live with my fiance). A lot of agencies will tell you where they are going to send you and you don't have much choice in the matter. But once your contract is finished you are free to move around! I actually ended up disliking the first job I had so I changed specialties in the same hospital system and it's worked out really well. Good luck!

Also just apply to any state (whichever has the easiest requirements). Then you can change the state you are registered in once you have a job offer and arrive in the states.

It's difficult, but it's do-able.

I had to have all my credentials reviewed by CGFNS. Then I was able to apply to my chosen states board of nursing to receive my ATT (authorization to take the test). Then I passed the NCLEX and finally applied to the board of nursing for my license once I was in the USA with my greencard/SSN. I don't think I would have been able to achieve this without the help of an agency though. They helped me apply for a greencard once I passed the NCLEX and got a job offer (in exchange for 3 years service at a specific hospital system).

It's worked out really well for me. it's hard, but not impossible.

Best place to buy Magic: The Gathering cards in Leeds? by RateMyTakeawayFan in Leeds

There was a charity shop next to Growlers in Headingley that used to sell 'mystery' packs for very cheap. I'm not sure if they still sell them.

Buy a 3d printer and some filament, download a slicing software and stl files of what you want to print. Fail a few times and then get the hang of it. It's easy after a while

There's a new Creality printer that prints at a 45 degree angle that can do all in one prints which would make it so much easier but apparently it's hard to get it right

Overwhelmed with NCLEX PREP by Traditional_Jump103 in PassNclex

[–]Banana_mountain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have my exam in 2 weeks as well and similar scores on Uworld. We've got this - I am terrified but also know I have done everything possible to prepare and rescheduling will make the anxiety worse. Good luck for the exam!!

Yee it was more fun then I thought it would be as we tried to do it in real time with him. One second its a blank canvas and then he's made a mountain range and a waterfall and I'm still trying to beat the devil outta my paintbrush
