Unfortunately these positions would require a start date sooner than September 2017. Most hospitals when recruiting are really looking for someone to start no later than 4/5 months after successful interview. Pay would be determined by your years of experience and also which state you secured a job in as pay differs largely from state to state

Sorry these positions are full time only

Yes they have recruited UK midwives previously who needed the supervised practice. If you would be interested please email a CV to Ciaran@hecareers.com and I can forward you further information?

They haven't outlined a minimum years of experience for this role, how much experience do you have? Do you have your AHPRA?

Hi I have worked for a UK based Australian Nursing Recruitment company for many years now and have been asked many times about preparing a CV for an Australian employer so wanted to pass on some helpful tips for nurses but also for any other professions. Main points to remember; - DO NOT send a generic CV. Tailor your CV for every position you apply for including why you specifically want to work for that company/hospital and why you feel you would be suitable for their positions addressing the key criteria. - DO NOT send a 10-15 page CV. I often receive CV's of 10-15 pages long, the people reading these CV's are reading many CV's and do not have the time to read such long CV's. A CV of 2-3 pages is long enough to give the employer an understanding of your experience. The interview is the opportunity to talk in greater detail. - List your most recent experience first as this is what the hospital/employer will be interested in. - Include a personal statement. This will give the chance to give an overview of your experience, circumstances and who will be relocating. This allows employers to get an understanding of your reasons for relocating, who with if relocating with family and an overview of your experience so they can understand quickly if you potentially would be suitable for their role. - FOLLOW UP on every CV sent. Just because you do not get a response doesn't mean they aren't interested!!! They might receive hundreds of CV's a day so they may not have had chance to look at yours, following up will make you stand out from other applicants and demonstrate a determination to get the role. Hopefully this can be of help in some way when preparing a CV/applying for a position in Australia. Thanks for reading Ciaran

Hi Lara We certainly do, at this moment in time we don't have any positions available in Perth, although that is always subject to change. We do have a paeds position available in Adelaide. if you're set on Perth then I would recommend contacting the larger Public/Private hospitals in the area in which you intend on basing yourself. If you contact the HR team and explain that you have PR and AHPRA im sure you wont have much trouble in securing interviews. Interviews can vary from hospital to hospital however they often are quite informal, usually telephone/Skype calls. They usually ask lots of personal questions about you and who is relocating with you (family etc) and your motivation for wanting to work with them. They will also likely ask you some clinical nursing scenarios specific to your nursing area. That is the main part of the interview process, assuming you have done well they will ask to take references and all being ok a job offer usually follows. Hope this helps, any other questions let me know. Ciaran www.hecareers.com

For any nurses considering relocating to Australia in the future I would like to pass on some advice as to nursing specialties that are in demand throughout Australia; Theatre nurses Anaesthetic and Recovery Oncology ICU - If given the opportunity to complete a post grad ICU course this will help massively in securing a job in Aus. ED/A&E Nurse Aged Care Cath Lab If you can gain experience in any of the above areas you shouldn't find it difficult to secure a job in Australia as there has been a shortage of experienced nurses in these areas for the last 4-5 years and will likely be the same in the future. If anyone has any questions id be more than happy to help

We do have Australian employers who are currently recruiting and sponsoring on a 457 visa, were you looking for a community nursing post? It will largely depend on when you would be able to relocate and which locations you would consider?

We're recruiting for several different hospitals and have positions currently in Melbourne, Adelaide, Sydney and Canberra. Ideally AHPRA registered, we do also have opportunities for nurses who need to top up to a degree to get AHPRA registration. If you have any questions or possibly would be interested please message me on here

I work for an Aus agency finding UK/Irish nurses jobs in Australia. From my experience this would be standard procedure after interview. The interview clearly went well otherwise they wouldn't approach your referees, I imagine once they get positive references back (Which im sure they will) you would likely receive a formal job offer. This can take a little while but I wouldn't worry as different hospitals process at different speeds. Good luck
