What will my employer (Trust) pay for?
If you require a visa to work in the UK, the Trust will meet the total cost of the Certificate of Sponsorship and the Visa. Each Trust we work with provides either a relocation package that typically pays for flights and transfers and reimbursements for the cost of NMC registration, English exam, IOM etc. This does vary with each Trust though, so please enquire as to what the specific Trust you are interested in offers.
Do I have to pay Resource Finder to find me a job?
Candidates will never have to pay any money to Resource Finder for their recruitment and deployment to the UK.
