How can I start a life abroad after graduation

How can I start a life abroad after graduation?
I'm a nursing student in Georgia, USA and I aspire to move to Europe after I graduate and live and work there for at least a year. I'm thinking either Germany, England, Scotland, or Switzerland (I've visited and am fond of all of these places). How would I go about finding a job, a place to live, and starting a life there? Any advice would be helpful, especially from those who have had experience moving away!

For Germany you become fluent in German, for Switzerland you become fluent in German, French, or Italian depending on where you want to live. If you only speak English you are limited to England and Scotland. You should get in contact with their boards to see what you can do to be qualified in the United Kingdom (though no love for Wales or Northern Ireland?!?!), you may have to attend extra courses, or just pay a fee. If you do speak any of the aforementioned languages the issue is the same, contact the board and find out what the procedure is for qualifying international nurses. Starting a life is your last worry now, you have to be allowed into the country first and be able to find work, which is less easy in the UK.

you may try to find this answer at a Swiss consulat. I don't think there are many nurses from Switzerland in this site.

You might try to readdress this question on http://www.genevaonline.ch site. It is a web page for English speaking people living in Switzerland. I am not a nurse but I would imagine it has to be more than $40000 a year.

The salary is quite good compared to other jobs . However, the cost of living is high in Switzerland.

I wouldn't consider Libya if I were you. Look for what happened to the Bulgarian nurses in this country. Switzerland is a much more secure and comfortable place to go. As Filipino, avoid Arabic countries by all means! For Filipino girls and women are highly disregarded and barely considered as more than slaves in those countries. Then same applies to Asian women in general.

We are moving to Switzerland, and I need help

We are moving to Switzerland, and I need help!?
My boyfriend and I are moving to Switzerland within the next 4 years and I was wondering how hard it is to move there. I am in the process of getting my nursing degree and was also wondering if Switzerland has a high demand for nurses like they do in the US. I am looking to get into the mental health field. 1. Is it hard to get a nursing job in Switzerland? 2. How much do they make? 3. Does a US nursing degree transfer to a nursing degree in Switzerland? Thanks in advance.

I don't have the exact answers to your questions, but I would recommend looking into specific health companies that send people around the world. Try to get a second language down pat and have some experience in your home country before looking to transfer. http://www.msf.ca/recruitment/who-is-needed/nurses/
