According to The Guardian Newspaper - https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/may/16/ministers-told-to-set-out-plan-for-hiring-mental-health-nurses-in-england - 1/3 of all nurse vacancies are for Mental Health Nursing roles. The country is gripped in a mental health 'time bomb' and the only way to divert away from this crisis is to recruit and train more Mental Health nurses. With a 19% drop in the numbers of UK graduates enrolling on Nursing programs in this year alone, according to the Royal College of Nursing Feb 2023 ( https://www.rcn.org.uk/news-and-events/news/uk-fall-in-nursing-degree-applicants-exposes-professions-recruitment-crisis-090223 ) where will these new Mental Health Nurses be recruited from? Are you a mental health nurse and interested in considering the UK for the next step in your career? Are you from a country that isn't on the Amber or Red LIST (https://www.nhsemployers.org/articles/code-practice-red-and-amber-list-countries). If so, we would love to hear from you? There's never been a better time to be a Mental Health Nurse and the UK is head and shoulder above other countries when it comes to opportunities, career development and progression. If you hold a recognised qualification in Mental Health or Psychiatric nursing we would love to hear from you. Salaries typically vary from £28,407- £40,000 depending on whether you wish to work in a hospital or a nursing home. Visa costs are covered by employers in the UK, as well as international flights and initial accommodation. Our advisers can assist you free of charge and most importantly present you to employers that best suit your career goals. Both the public and private sectors in the UK offer great opportunities for career progression and it is remembering that although hospitals pay less than nursing homes, when you add in overtime your take home salary working in hospitals in particular can increase significantly.

On a daily basis, our team probably reads through about 50+ CVs , from nurses, carers, support works and allied health professionals. About 10% of the CVs we read are ready to be presented to our client. The other 90% need to be rewritten, not because the candidate is not the right candidate for the vacancies advertised with our clients but because the CV is poorly written or formatted.
