unless your skilled and your skill in nursing is on the gov job shortage list, it will not be easy to find an employer who will apply for a workpermit for you.

my wife is a registered doc in the phils, shes having trouble passing the exams here to enable her to work as a doc, also the constantly changing and increasing restrictions the gov keep placing on IMG (international medical grads), the gov want british nurses and docs, but seeing were in europe, they have to let the europeans apply for the same jobs to.. and so they restrict those from outside europe from working here..
