PH RN experience:
Staff Nurse = 2008-2010 (2 years)
Site Nurse= 2014 (4 months)
Company Nurse = May 2014 - present (2 years)
I took the IELTS test last April 1 with positive results. So ngayon hindi ko alam kung saan ako pwede, BP or conversion, because I'm not sure if I have good nursing experience.
I hope someone could give an advice on whats the best thing to do.
Thank you!

Ilan weeks ang waiting time on the following? Provided na complate ang documentations:
1. ANMAC assessment- status is received last 27 October
2. INvitation to apply for a visa
Can I also submit 2 EOIs? 190 and 189 simultaneously? Then apply na lang kung alin ang mauna?
Thanks in advance! God bless us all

yung mga 3-6 program or bridging program is for those n meron nang extensive exp mga 3-5yrs or more.
so if andito k n yung program n pipiliin mo is depende exp mo and when k last nang practice as rn. besides iaassess k pa nang school. iba yung school or uni dito meron sila pre requisites na kailangan mo isatisfy before k maka fully enrol para ma siguraduhan nila n after mo matapos program mo eh maka work k agad at yung di walang direction. I hoped that answered your question.
