Hi
I have only just qualified in january and now work on a stroke unit in the uk. Eager to leave uk asap i checked google for nursing and dubai. Loads of agencies came up but all require two to three years experience. Maybee you can find something there. If you happen to stumble over someone that doesnt mind just one years experience please let me know.
thanks

Abu Dhabi
Hi!

I looked for work in Dubai, but ended up accepting a job in Abu Dhabi (the capital of the UAE - 140 km from Dubai).

I start working there in january 2008. I used an agency in the UK, which I found searching the internet. They got me a job interview in may 2007. They helped me with the paperwork and believe there is plenty! The hospital takes care of the visa application, I just provided them with the necessary documents.

I have 7 years + experience, the job I got is a position as a Charge Nurse. The salary is: 11.830 AED/month, Housing allowance: 45.000 AED/yearly, Furniture allowance: 15.000 AED/1. during service, Water/electricity: 400 AED/monthly, Transportation allowance: 500 AED/monthly, Air tickets: Yearly, Annual leave: 40 days.

The agency told me, that salary and housing is better in Abu Dhabi. But I don't know...

I think there is a yearly bonus of 1 month salary - but im not sure
The first 3 months i share an apartment with 1-2 other nurses.
