  1. Hi, I was told that the NSW NBMA board will be having a meeting on November and they will send mail to the applicants who are waiting for AHPRA registration within three weeks after the meeting. It's already mid-December. Has anyone heard from them? I have not.
  2. I submitted my application on March, and additional documents were requested which were submitted by April. I still have not heard from AHPRA yet until now. It's been almost 7 months. Is it really taking this long for anyone else?
  3. Hi! My AHPRA assessment result hasn't arrived yet. I applied March 2014. Is it also taking this long for the rest?
  4. Goodluck and kudos to you! Exciting times ahead!
  5. They might also require bridging course to degree-holders without experience. Or those with degree + experience but do not come from US/UK/Canada. For example, Philippine nurses who are all degree-holders are required to take 3-months, 1-yr or 2-yr uni course depending on the institution attended, experience, and IELTS scores. Those with experience, accredited school, and IELTS >/7 in all areas are usually asked to take the 3-month bridging course.
  6. Hi! I would like to ask if anyone has had an experience undergoing Bridging Course for Nurses. Do the schools have regular intake, like the regular schoolyear, or is it continuous throughout the year?
  7. Hi! I would like to ask how long it takes for AHPRA to assess qualification? I sent mine March 2014. So far, I was asked to provide two additional documents, which I have already forwarded to them last month. Thank you.
  8. Check out this link: http://www.awpa.gov.au/our-work/labour-market-information/skilled-occupation-list/pages/flagged-occupations.aspx Just a possibility. If you are qualified and thinking of applying, apply now.
  9. Aside from bedside nursing, what are the other career paths one might pursue as a nurse in Australia?
  10. She took the bridging course, and registered with AHPRA. I don't know why she couldn't get a job, but she said she knows a lot of other nurses who have no jobs and waiting for agencies to give them duties. I really hope she is wrong. I am waiting for my AHPRA assessment. It's been a month since I passed the requirements.
  11. Hi, How is the job market in Australia for Nurses? I met a nurse from Poland last week. She has been here in Melbourne for three years, and is working as a phlebotomist in a laboratory. She says she couldn't get a job as a nurse that's why she's stuck doing that.
  12. Are there NPs or Nurse Practitioners in Australia, like in the US? How much is the salary? And how to be one?
  13. Hi! Thanks for the reply. There's a coffee shop near where we live that's looking for staff who "must be experienced in coffee and sandwich making." I'm neither. When they post something like that, is it right to assume it's an absolute requirement? Thanks.
  14. Any idea how to find odd jobbs here in Melbourne? I have applied to numerous postings on Seek, no callback. At this point, I am open to jobs in retail, reception, etc. It seems everything needs a certificate, but I still want to try my luck. I am waiting for my assessment from AHPRA but based on forum posts it might come at least six months from now.
  15. And how can an RN be one? How much is the salary typically?
