I'm a newbie here myself Angela but this is a very helpful forum and I would simply like to welcome you while agreeing with Arthur's comments. As I have already discovered, there are various "threads" on here which are useful. It's not clear from your letter whether you have done the year's work in Philippine hospital(s) which the UK NMC requires for registration, but even after doing that you're not guaranteed of a job. So, depending on your circumstances, you may prefer to aim for a care assistant post and be able to study for NVQ at the same time. As for a part time job in the UK, you're competing with many unemployed people here, but there are jobs available if you're prepared for work other than those related to nursing.
