How are you doing brother? Does one need the cgfns certificate to sign up with Avant? I will be happy if you could also put me through on this. I am doing this for my wife. Thanks.

Add me. Augustine Christopher

I'm good. You don't the CGFNS certificate to sign up. I suggest you go through their website first and then get back to me with specific questions. Meanwhile, add me on Facebook

OGP is a seasoned agency. I had a glimpse of their contract recently. I prefer the avant package because the contract is in hours.

what do you mean by "seasoned" and is it true that OGP requires English?

OGP has been in the business of recruiting international nurses to the US for longer than most of the agencies around now (including avant). Their "shakara" too much before. They only interested in recruiting nurses from the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Jamaica and South Africa. Most Nigerian nurses in the early to mid 2000 migrated through agencies like White Glove Care and Kforce.
With the onset of visa retrogression around 2006, most agencies went out of business or transformed to travel nurse agencies. OGP went into hibernation. WGC and Kforce folded up. Kforce transfered most of their clients to Avant.
Avant started in 2003 and were actively recruiting nurses during the retrogression. They didn't abandon their clients. When the retrogression began to ease off around 2013, there was an influx of international nurses to the US through avant. That is how they became a major player in the business. Others are now trying to catch up.
PassportUSA only started accepting nurses with CGFNS last year. OGP now accepts nurses without CGFNS or NCLEX-RN. I don't know about the English proficiency requirements.
Avant made it easier for nurses without CGFNS, NCLEX-RN, or IELTS to be signed up. Others are just playing catch up to get a share of the market. Every fortnight, an average of 20 nurses and physical therapists come into the US to start the avant transition program before they are deployed to their states of assignment.
Avant has a comprehensive program that prepares one for life in the US and to quickly adapt to the the healthcare system in the US.

Every agency has its own set of rules.... Its stated clearly both in their adverts and website that you need to work currently in a facility(secondary or tertiary) with at least 100 beds and at least 1year working experience in medical, surgical, icu, emergency and theatre

Writing the CGFNS exam is not compulsory but you must go through CGFNS for credentials evaluation. Refer to the initial posts by the creator of this thread for information on how CGFNS is involved
