In response to being chosen oven UK graduates, I thought that the current job situation meant that the foreign office had to take these posts off the national shortage lists therefore are not open to foreign applicants?

I'm also a 'new graduate' who qualified last July and have been unable to obtain an NHS post. Possibly the fact that I live in Scotland means there are less posts to apply for. In terms of experince I have managed to get 2 days work a week in a private clinic, I volunteer for one Youth Football team and work another night for a football youth academy. The rest of the time I work as a nursing axillary for an agency. Somehow I pay the bills! These are the lengths i am going to in order to maintain my skills, yet when i'm interviewed I struggle to explain that I do this because I have to, not because I'm desparate to break into sports.

So nearly a year on and I feel I would have more benefit staying in uni!

Can you folk not get jobs in your native countries?I would advise you do this in the mean time if you can and get the experience to apply for senior ii positions which seem to be less in demand.
any how best of luck
