Substantive
NHS Shetland is recruiting experienced Adult Registered Nurses from outside of the United Kingdom.
We are looking for friendly and enthusiastic individuals who would like to join NHS Shetland on a permanent contract basis; we commit to assist you in achieving your UK NMC registration.
You are required to have successfully undertaken Test Of Competency Part 1 (CBT) and meet the English language requirements (required of your NMC application) prior to your application. Both certificates must have twelve months validity remaining at time of application.
Our Nursing and Midwifery teams provide health care across in-patient, day case, out-patient and community environments, based across a large variety of settings and locations in NHS Shetland.
As part of this exciting opportunity we will support you through a fully funded in-house, person-centred education programme to prepare for your Test of Competence Part 2 (OSCE) exam and obtain your full UK NMC registration. NHS Grampian will support NHS Shetland in OSCE preparations.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
