Last December, Catherine spoke with Chilanzi about her international recruitment experience with NEU Professionals. Together they discuss the entire recruitment and relocation process, from Chilanzi's decision to advance her career at the NHS in England, the NHS interview process, the concerns of temporarily leaving her family behind in her home country while she studies for the OSCE and settles in a new country, and the value of setting goals for yourself. Chilanzi gives valuable advice for any internationally recruited healthcare professional about how to make the cultural adjustment easier, by reaching out to friends, family, colleagues, and members of their faith to make the transition easier and ensure support throughout the first few months.

In this episode, Catherine J. Morrison, NEU Project Manager, and Hasan, Mental Health Nurse from Iraq, discuss the three exams necessary for international nurses: OET, CBT and OSCE. Hassan assures his application process with NEU Professionals was quite easy and straightforward, and his recruitment consultant was very helpful in preparing him for his interview!

Maxwell is a truly inspirational nurse who has successfully completed his journey to the U.K. in 2022 and is now working in London as part of a fantastic NHS hospital team. This Mental Health nurse originally from Eswatini used part of his wages to build a borehole for his village back home so they could have access to clean water.
