The waiting is always the worst part for me - I am so impatient. Dreading all the hanging about especially with kids wanting to make plans and know when things will be happening. I had initially thought we would be there by October but beginning to think thats not realistic, hope you hear soon

Hi Folks - has anyone had any update to their situation - hopefully you will all now have had job offers and be making plans to get there asap!!! I have just had email sayingthe have now passed me details to the health service districts to process!

HI all
got visa transaction number and have now booked our meds for 20th of May. However still got a house to sell i'm really getting the jitters we have reduced by £20,000 had a viewing Saturday booked but they never arrived really peeves me off:curse: we hoped to be out there between July and September but will have to see now.

I've just put my house on the market - dreading how long it could take! NOT a good time to want to sell.

Jaca, How long did you wait from interview to offer of specific post at Hospital - they offered me job but still waiting to hear back from Northern area about specific post- I knwo probably just me but so impatient and its been two weeks since they told me they had all my police checks and refree reports in. I have my registration so really want to get things moving - so frustrating telling people we are going but not knowing where or to do what!!!!

Hi could you help me i have an .interview with queensland health next week in london .I dont know what to expect ,sorts of questions asked ,.scenarios etc .iI am a neonatal nurse hoping to emigrate on ens visa. thanks

good luck with interview , i'm a mental health nurse and was interviewed last October. i was asked about six questions all scenario ones nothing particularly taxing all really common sense. There was a thread about interview questions but think that was last year but if you have a look back through discussions you should find something. I wouldn't worry too much though remember they are desperate for nurses. I had only been qualified about 8 months when interviewed and was offered a post there and then.
Good luck

thanks alot i feel better

I also found the interview really laid back, the questions were very easy for a practitioner to answer - you will be a star i'm sure. Just be aware that they do not move very fast even when they tell you you've been successful at interview things move slowly afterwards. I know i'm stuck in limbo land at the moment!!!

Hi
Do you know if they offer permanent sponsorship i have a family and dont want to go on 405 where are you hoping to go? and when was your interview ? thanks.

My interview was 14.3.08, they do not offer permanant residence as standard only 4 yr temp 457 visa, though i believe that some people on BE have ben offered something different - it seems to depend upon how much in demand the job is and is negotiated direct with your Hospital rather tha recruitment staff at interview. Hope this helps, AJ

Hi I'm going on a 457 but QLH have told me i can convert this after 6 months for PR. I am hoping to go to Rockhampton within the next few months . My interview was in October 07 and anjib is right they do move slowly, good job though with the state of the housing market here.:curse:

Hi all,
got a job at Redcliffe lined up, waiting for case officer to request meds and police checks which agents say should be imminent (lodged 17th December). House still on market but now feel really fed up!!! Reccy to QLD was great but I really am beginning to think its too much! Feel like life is always on hold and I wake every day to think shall we go or should we stay? Sorry to moan but feel as though i've spent loads of hard earned savings, dont live for the day and cant imagine it all falling into plce! Anyone out there on the same track? Lou
