Since i passed my board exam, i never stop going out to process my certificates/documents just to have a work. Before, if you already have your board rating and passing, you can already apply for a job. Now, they want your prc id. I haven't registered my license yet cause my schedule is still on april 24 2008. And knowing how prc process all their documents, they will release it i think after 5 months.. can you believe it? PRC have lots of computer but still they are functioning like a turtle... yesterday, i went to 6 hospitals. Luckily, i found 1 hospital that is hiring. but as i said earlier, they want the prc id. without it i they will not process my application. the other hospital were i went, is not accepting nurses that is not a graduate from their school. and there's this hospital that they are accepting volunteer nurses, but you need to pay them 10,000 php first. and you'll work there for 6 months. My, 6 months without salary even allowance...

really? i never knew that applying for a job if you are nurse is that difficult. and why will you pay 10K to be a volunteer? they are supposed to give you allowance not you giving 10K to them? i understand the PRC license requirement, its normal process, hospital is really requiring PRC license to their applicants. and with regards to our PRC system, be used to it because i think all our government offices are like that, slow and time consuming, plus bonus of irate employees. :-)so i guess we can't do anything about that.

Before hospitals are so lenient in hiring nurses. i mean Board rating is enough for your application. Before also even if you haven't registered your prc id yet, they will allow you to have an IVT training... now they are very strict.... they are saying that hospitals are really in need of nurses but if you inquire to them they will tell you that they are already full... everything now is about money... they are asking money but in return they will not give you a good salary. actually nurse's salary is same as janitor's...
