| 剛開始找工作實在很茫然，還去廟裏拜拜請求指點迷津 |
考完英文以後中間又渾渾噩噩度過幾週
因為我是土生土長台灣人，去美國工作一定要找能幫我辦身份的sponsor
而找仲介的資料，台灣人分享得資訊真是少之又少
好不容易跌跌撞撞這個月透過direct hire 終於順利和醫院簽約
想說終於有機會來寫一篇文章了！！！
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
準備履歷
1/ google搜尋 :nurse resume example 就有很多資料了，更進一步可以搜尋工作單位，如: ICU nurse resume
2/內容
#1 Contact Information
#2 Education, Skills, Licensures
#3 Professional profile (簡短的介紹自己)
#4 Current Work Experience(經歷記得目前的工作放第一個)
我是自己先完成履歷內容，不知道怎麼寫就把重點寫上去使用chatgpt修改😂
找英文家教順稿，下載付費（大約150台幣）的模板完成
我自己是多花點錢把履歷外觀弄得漂亮，不過看個人需求😂
找仲介
1/主要是了解direct hire 和staffing agency 差異*CGFNS列出的5大注意事項
無仲介費、不要求提供任何抵押品（如房車）、不收走護照、要求立即簽約、3年以上合約的都有問題！
另外，標榜不需要護理工作經驗也有問題！可能根本不是護理工作！
找醫院
我將它分為醫院、州（的哪一區）、天氣、租金、人口、犯罪率、轉機、英文轉照需求
1/醫院評價
(1)Glassdoor, Linkedin, Indeed 美國各大求職網
把醫院的名字貼上去，可以大概知道這家醫院員工給的評價、薪水、還有前人面試過的問題可以參考
(2)醫院的網站
直接去該家醫院網站搜尋，過程中發現有很多醫院網頁無法連結進去，後來發現是因為我們的ip位置在台灣，朋友有分享使用VPN更改位置以後就可以點進去了
(3)有關醫院的YouTube影片
許多仲介都會和醫院合作拍影片
有些影片裡會有外籍護士分享醫院和生活環境，也有些醫院的HR會直接介紹醫院，會清楚很多
2/州（的哪一區）、天氣、租金、人口、犯罪率、轉機
美國很大，連每個州也都很大，所以要知道醫院是在那個州的哪一區、哪個county
不知道我都問chatgpt，拜科技所賜，直接問他各種伸手牌問題都會找到答案😆
鎖定區域後，透過以下網站找天氣、房屋租金、人口、犯罪
Economic Policy Institute (EPI)：輸入地區、家庭成員以後，就可以計算大概月花費的細項應該抓多少
NeighborhoodScout：輸入地名會有該地區的簡介、房價、經濟、犯罪等，不過有些地區看不到搜尋的結果，要付費！但就輸入看看，或範圍拉大一點，還可以大概抓一下那個地方的資料
Numbo：點選城市和國家，會列出超級細項的開支
真心建議可以自己建立一個表格，把他一一填上去，因為要考量的因素實在太多了
透過一一填上表格，內心也會比較清楚自己到底想不想要這家醫院
3/ 英文轉照標準
每個州有各自對於外國學歷的護士轉照標準
要自己上各州護理局找答案
舉例：Texas BON foreign nurse endorsement
BON(board of nursing)
我問過chatgpt，不過他叫握自己上州護理局找答案😂

*Make sure to not ask these questions if they have already told you this information!
以上這些資料是參考Eileen及Dora所寫的面試準我把問題全部通通綜合起來並分為三類，已經有和前面兩位確認過是否可以分享這些資料，他們也表示同意
如我有人覺得有抄襲的疑慮話，我也會馬上直接撤下，反正這些資訊我日後也用不到，分享都只是幫忙後面的人而已😬
Connectics 和Ｗorldwide 仲介公司也會提供面試tips ，但他給我面試tips的時候是在面試前一天😅😂
