hmmm...you and another guy on here. It does indeed sound like a scam.

100% SCAM First of all, no private employer can sponsor you for a visa. ONLY employers listed on the Home Office Register of Sponsors are allowed to employ non-EU workers http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/employers/points/sponsoringmigrants/registerofsponsors/ then on the right hand side under Related Documents, download the PDF Register of Sponsors - Employers These are the ONLY employers in the UK who can sponsor a foreign worker for a visa. If your employer is not listed the visa will never be approved as you are required to bring your employer's Certificate of Sponsorship to the British Embassy when you apply for a visa. Second, if you did not go to a nursing school in the EU, you cannot just work as a nurse in the UK, even as a private nurse, unless you have already completed a 20-day ONP (Overseas Nurses Programme) at an accredited school in the UK and are registered with the NMC. If you have not already lived in the UK where you attended an ONP then there is NO way you can get a visa to work as a nurse in the UK - every employer knows this. This would have been the first requirement in any legitimate job posting for a nurse. Third, if you are asked to SEND anything to the British embassy or anyone else, it's 100% a SCAM. Visas can only be applied for IN PERSON by YOU at the British embassy/consulate/high commission in YOUR country. So anyone asking you to contact some "embassy" or "agency" or "lawyer" by email with your documents or asking you to SEND money is always a scam. The ONLY way to get a visa is to go in person with your passport, original offer letter (must be mailed to your home, email/fax not accepted), copy of the employer's certificate of sponsorship (no certificate = no visa), application and supporting documentation. You will need to be fingerprinted and photographed at the embassy as part of the application process and you do not pay anything until you have actually handed in your documentation. DO NOT send these criminals any money or passport details - this is a long running scam If you need more proof it's a scam, write back to say that you just spoke to the Embassy and the embassy warned that there are a lot of job scams and to prove the are legitimate they must forward you a copy of their Certificate of Sponsorship that you will forward to the embassy for verification. If they say they don't have a certificate or that you need to pay for the certificate, you know it's a scam. An employer must hold a valid Certificate before they can even offer a job to a non-EU worker

It's a scam. You can't get a visa to be a carer or nurse at the moment.

Yes there is still a shortage even w. the economy set to shrink by at least 4% this year. Don't expect to escape the recession/depression though, Blair and co followed the Bush plan all the way down the drain.. Just contact any private employment agency that subs to the NHS, they will sort out the paper work for you and pay way over the going rates because people are essentially not smoking anymore and consequently living much too long!

As you know the US health system gets money from paying people, whereas the UK health service is free (NHS). Because of this, and unreasonable government funding, the NHS is in quite bad shape. The pay is low and the hours long, and the hospitals are in bad shape. I don't know why you would want to work as a Nurse in the UK, but if you do, there should be plenty chance to get a job. If you decide to speciallise in later years then you are in for good money. It depends on the field however.

Demand is extremely high for all kinds of nurses in the UK, no different than the rest of the world. Your problem will be getting a work visa. I suggest getting a copy of the Sunday London Times, and look thru the employment section. There will be pages of ads for nurses. Contact the employer to see if they can, or will, assist with the work visa.
