Nouveau care dey find 20 pounds to chop on top care certificate. Though I paid. I can't tell if that's the reason I have been invited for 2 interviews.

PS. It's not Nouveau Care that invited me for interview

oniwoski:
Me I Don even find accommodation dey wait for interview. I will soon buy flight ticket...dey half not seen anything

LagosismyHome:
It depends on the position.... initally it was the senior carer role that was on the shortage scheme. That rate is £10.10.... on feb 15 they added other roles such as carer etc so even those without experience can be taken for carer compared to senior carer role. That role some are paying £9.50 . So maybe that the lower rate you are seeing

Jaybadestboy:
Not only them, also nouveau care, I don't trust those ones

Teacup:
For ENA Care Group, who else received another email after the IELTS request. They are asking the applicant to indicate if he is inside UK or outside UK
Hope they will not disqualify overseas applicants

Yemite1845:

DeltaWest:
They are doing a lot more refugee visas now than before because of Ukraine. And it's not only Nigeria, they seem to have suspended it for all countries.

Widall:
Not so good news. No more visa application for now

If you have the means to have it corrected, please do. If not, the affidavit is okay. You can start the application with it. The worst response is that they will tell you that the affidavit cannot be used.

DreamerDoer:
Please when they ask for work experience, what proof of work experience am I to submit?

I watched many YouTube videos. Crammed many answers. But she asked different questions entirely.

That same yesterday i got an email about the right to work in the UK. When i clearly stated that I need sponsorship to work in the UK. And I'm a Nigerian in Nigeria

Ifesinachi22:
It was an Interview.

I think that Laura girl intentionally was asking hard questions.

Give me an example of when you handled this, give me an example of how you handled this patient.

She won't ask you if you have encountered such patients or not. She assumed you have had such patients.

I know it's a sin in interviews to answer "I don't know", so, i was just cooking up on the spot stories.

To make matters worse, a girl called and my network ceased and refused to come back. They ended the video chat from their end. I called Laura and she said she's already attending to other candidates and can't go back to the video chat again that she will send all of us email in the evening.

I got an unsuccessful email yesterday around 4pm.

The interview lasted for 31 minutes

Jaybadestboy:
But which do you guys prefer, domicliary, live in care or care home settings

EnglandAmaka:
Funny you

I love old people too

Everyone will get old someday

I discovered that this Care Homes pay more than NHS band 3.

I've seen Care Homes that pay £1000 pay week. Free Accommodation for 3 months, visa fee, plane ticket, Free DBS check, free uniforms etc. Plus they will still pay £500 to anyone that refer workers to them.

I think the reason for this is because they work more hours. They handle body wastes, cook, bath the service user, run errands etc. Just typical example of what Nigerians call MAID

In any case where the hospital does not have an official email address (Bleep@companyname.com), you can use their official gmail address but your reference will have to send his/her official ID card + employment letter/promotion letter (must be on official letter-headed paper signed and stamped with the official stamp by the head of the organisation or HR). The email address of the head of HR of the hospital will be requested to confirm the authenticity of your reference.

Let's try not to discourage others. Someone can combine driving lessons with other visa processing steps, it only requires little funds

Hello.

So I'm guessing you're quite more proficient in EEG than in ECG and Spirometry. There is a course I took that served as a qualification course for me and I also used it for my RCCP. I'll forward the details to your mail when I get more information on the next batch. However, Respiratory and Cardiac physiology have the most vacancies. Cardiac is quite wide and you will need to be proficient in more tests than ECG (Echo, Pacemaker programming, stress tests, Holter monitoring, Tilt table, etc). Respiratory is not that wide, once you can do Forced Vital Capacity and can interpret Spirograms, you will be trained for the rest. As for Neuro, since you are good at EEG, you can try to learn Nerve conduction studies (carpal tunnel syndrome tests) and also try to be proficient at interpreting EEGs. That will put you in good stead. Sleep physiology (PSG) also has vacancies too but you also need to be proficient.

That being said, I would advise that you 'pick a struggle' and focus on it. Maximum of 2 but don't focus on all, it may affect your chances.

About interviews, all they want to know is how good you are at performing and interpreting all the tests in the specialty. Once they can see some level of proficiency, you will get the job. But be advised, YOU WILL BE GRILLED EXTENSIVELY! So know your onions very well. Once you perform satisfactorily in the interview and you get the job, that's when they'll start to ask for your qualifications.

Masters is not necessary for getting a job, neither is it necessary for RCCP. I got both from Nigeria without masters and I still don't have it. You don't need to go for Carer since you're way more qualified and experienced than a care worker.

When applying for jobs, target Band 5 and 6 jobs. You will get PLENTY rejections, its normal. Just don't give up. If you have made up your mind on your area of focus, you can start your applications. If you get stuck at any point, just shoot me an email.

I hope that helps.

I am seriously hoping u clinch this. Keep professing positivities. Good luck

dee1504:
God bless you too.
Which area are you most proficient in/do you prefer to work in? That would determine how I can help streamline the courses to recommend.
Meanwhile you can search for 'MEDICAL LOCUM JOBS' on Instagram to see the courses they offer.

dee1504:
Tell your friend to go to the nearest Teaching or General Hospital and locate any of the following units: EEG, ECG, Echocardiography, Spirometry or Physiology units. Request to learn at any of the unit (Most are free, some may ask for certain amount of money). Get sufficient experience and proficiency in their chosen field. Look for short courses related to their chosen fields that they can take. Then go online to begin their job search.

I schooled in Nigeria, by the way
