Healthcare recruiters are sometimes called intermediaries and these intermediaries recruit locally, nationally and also internationally for employers in need of nursing staff. International nursing jobs are often advertised online via websites and also in nursing journals.
Registering with a nursing agency can put you in touch with intermediaries that also specialise in nursing jobs abroad, and who can help you with the knowledge you need to make informed choices. Intermediaries offer information on move preparation, housing, banking, healthcare facilities, visas and licensure. People nursing in the UK or wanting to nurse in the UK from abroad need to register with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). Intermediaries can assist you with information on registering with such bodies in other countries.
Information is also available under our “Introduction to Nursing and Nursing Agency section”.
