I am working as a nurse in Pakistan. How can I work in the United States?

Dear Donna,

I am a 25-year-old RN in Karachi, Pakistan. Can you please guide me in how I can work in the United States? I have about 16 months of experience.

Dear Atif,

The job market for nurses is tight right now in many parts of the U.S. It likely will ease up in a while, just be aware of that. Your best bet would be to find an international agency that recruits and places nurses from foreign countries to work in the U.S. such as Avant Healthcare Professionals www.avanthealthcare.com/main. This is nurse-owned company. You also can do an Internet search for “International Nurse Recruitment.”

Best wishes,
Donna
