If you trained as a nurse in your home country and have a good command of the English language, then you are regarded by the healthcare system in Australia as an extremely valuable and highly desirable asset. Australian hospitals, Universities, community health services and aged care facilities in every city and every town, no matter how small or large, how central, regional or remote, want to hire you: in fact, they are literally desperate to give you a job. And if you apply, the Australian government will give your visa application priority over virtually all other professions, no matter where you live now.
In fact, as of early 2017- when I wrote this book- there is a stunning shortage of some 85 000 nurses in Australia, and by 2025- just 8 years away- the Australian government predicts that this will rise to over 107 000 unfilled vacancies. That means there’s no need to wait for 2025: right now there are 85 000 nursing jobs in Australia that you could apply for, and your application will face very little - and very probably no - competition.
No other country can offer its nurses the culture, pay, lifestyle and benefits that Australia has to offer. It has the best healthcare system in the world, the best career structure, the best weather, most affordable housing, the best paid nurses, the highest disposable income, is one of the safest countries on the planet and is a genuinely tolerant, multicultural and very exciting society.
And it wants you, and your family to be part of it. That's right: if you apply for a nursing job in Australia, the government will allow your immediate family to enter the country and stay in Australia with you for the duration of your visa, be it on a temporary or permanent basis.
How to get a Nursing Job in Australia will guide you through the intricacies of securing your right to register as a nurse and work in Australia, obtaining the right visa for your circumstances, getting a job,and setting up home in one of the greatest countries in the world.
Australian immigration doesn't discriminate: if you trained as a nurse and live in London, New York, Montreal, Auckland, Bangkok, Manilla, Tokyo, Riyadh, Sao Paolo, Rome, Pedang, Mumbai, wherever... if you can meet the registration and visa requirements, there's work for you here.
