Are you aware rate for your profession are quite lower in Costa Rica? Why move there?

Comment #2 Bill from Alajuela (Contact Member) -

All these job seekers looking for jobs in Costa Rica haven't a clue about the wages or the job market in Costa Rica!

You can try looking for nursing jobs in the US. They have a better package as far as remuneration is concerned. Try applying for a Green Card if you are interested in working and being a resident there. There are even more promising jobs in Africa, particularly Botswana. Which is your present country of residence plus what range of salary scale are you willing to work with? Am eager to know how wages and job markets in Costa Rica are?

It seems to me that gary finally nailed the thing that was being sought after(I am beating around the bush coz I am not sure whether to use a he or she).

Thirty years' experience is marvellous and prolific...how about if you went independent and employed others?

Costa Rica nursing jobs I would opine are of the lesser qualified type. Nurses in central and South America are doctor´s auxiliaries, no more. usually left at the lower salary levels. That´s my feeling. Not the high powered, professional U.S. style nurses that can actually perform surgey if they need to. Cheers!

I suggest though that you consider Canada Gary, I heard that they offer reasonable labor pay there. With your thirty years experience, I doubt if you will be having difficulties in applying anywhere in the globe.

In Canada, I do not know it really but my aunt told me so, that it is easy for you to move your family in there and apply for permanent residency if you want.

I think moving to any particular country as an expat will largely depend on how much you will do to make that move really smooth. I would not specifically limit myself to Costa Rica unless that move had the approval of those who have been there.

I have also heard that the nursing and medical profession has much demand in the UK. They even offer partial scholarships to would be nurses.

I have not heard of anything about that U.K. scholarship grant for nusing wannabes but i know for a fact that nurses are highly in demand on several countries like in the U.K. and Canada.

I have to say the same thing. We should not confine our selves with one country for there are lots of possibilities we just have to seak for them and grab them.

Best Of Luck..

Hi Maya, do you mean to say 'seek'?

Yes, i have to agree that there are some more countries out there that you can consider for trying your luck in job hunting.

You can always check out the net for some vacancies and employment too.

Good luck to your job hunting and i hope that you acquire the job that you have been hoping for. Have a good day to all.

Good luck in your search Gary. I am sure that you would be successful. I can offer nothing much more than my best of wishes, sad to say.

Comment #11 Eve (63.176.159.83) - 12/21/09 11:00

Well Eve, I think to wish a person all the best should not make you sad. In fact you are giving away your blessing so the recipient of your wishes should be proud and thankful.

And maybe the rate of nurses in Costa Rica is not that high, living there is what makes your stay worthwhile I must say. Personally, I would still go for Costa Rica. Good day to all.

Comment #13 Luigi (63.176.159.208) - 02/01/10 19:57

I have to agree on that. There is nothing more precious than to offer your best wishes, this is what I believe at. Anyway I would also want to wish all the best to Gary.

And back to Dean's post, I think it is more important that you enjoy your work and the salary should come next in your priority. Well, this is what I believe at. Anyway, have a good day.

"medical doctor"

i am a medical doctor with a degree and have had 3 years of cardio surgery residency and have one year left to be certified..i would like to move to costa rica without finishing the residency there and work as a medical doctor and possibly to continue also to further my cardio career..my average is out of 10 is 9.5. i am willing to forego the last year to be able to work as a doctor in costa rica..what are my chances. i am trained in romania which is a eu country

Comment #15 Sammy (109.111.97.245) - 02/27/10 19:54

Well, your plan is great but I must say that I think it would be much better if you finish your residency first and be certified before you go to Costa Rica or any other country to work. I mean, you will never know what will come or what will happen so it is much better if you will continue your residency. Have a great day guys and keep posting here.
