I am from Vancouver, Canada and I am thinking of moving to Australia. When I turn 22 I will get my degree in registered nursing. What is the job outlook for this occupation there? Living costs? Thanks to anyone who replies :)

  1. Lots of nursing jobs.... no doubt. If possible, consider going to a smaller city (like brisbane) thn Sydney as life in Sydney is not really life. Australia is not really expensive i wud say... especially if working full time.


  2. Nurses are in high demand for all of the details go to http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/medical-p...

    The cost of living can be high depends on where you want to live. See this real estate site for buying and renting

  3. Employment opportunities for Nurses are plenty.

    I posted some of this info for another question, but you may find it useful also:

    A 3 bed house in Western Sydney may cost you about $1200 per month.

    Travel from there to the CBD would take about an hour on the train eg: Leave Penrith 7:54am arrive Central 8:46am.

    The cost would be $ 187.00 per month.

    Food may be about $150-$250 pw for a family of 3-4.

    A single person may be better of closer to the City, in shared accommodation, maybe $100pw ?

    www.flatmatefinders.com.au shows Inner West at about $125-$150 pw

    Western Sydney has some good hospitals though, and with housing currently being cheaper there, it may be worth considering.  But it depends on what you are really looking for.

  4. Hey there, they're all in bed at the moment : ) hehe I'm Aussie but oversea's... They are always looking out for people in these fields, but it depends on what city you are going to live in... I find Australia quite expensive, but you would be able to live fairly comfortably... post this question maybe tomorrow, day time, their time, you might get some better answers, but state the city aswell... Sydney's amazing, but probably the most expensive... good luck and have fun!

    EDIT - I'm an idiot, I thought I saw Sydney somewhere!! haha...Well yeah Sydney, quite expensive, but sooo worth it! It's just got a buzz you don't get anywhere else in the country : )
