Current Job Situation & Future Vacancies for Nurses, Latest New Zealand Nursing Updates in Malayalam

🌟 New Video by The Outspoken Malayali with Saju Cherian: "Should Nurses Migrate to NZ in 2025? Are More Vacancies Coming?"

In this video, we provide a thorough look into New Zealand's current and projected job market for nurses, helping potential migrants weigh the realities of pursuing a nursing career here in 2025. Saju Cherian – a Registered Nurse, NZNO Board of Directors member, and Justice of the Peace with nearly two decades of experience in New Zealand’s healthcare system – shares his insights into the challenges and opportunities that may lie ahead.

Current Job Situation and Future Vacancies: As Health NZ tightens its budget and continues with job cuts, many migrant nurses are finding it difficult to secure employment. Thousands of CAP (Competency Assessment Program) nurses who completed their training as early as 2024 are still waiting for job placements, leading to a backlog of qualified candidates. While some vacancies may open in 2025, there is a high likelihood these positions will be filled by local New Zealand nursing graduates who have priority and are also facing employment challenges. The High Commission of India and multiple media outlets have issued warnings about the current job situation, advising caution due to the oversupply of qualified but unemployed nurses in the country.

Important Disclaimer: Our goal in sharing this video is to provide an honest overview of the realities facing migrant nurses. While some content may appear discouraging, it is intended to help set realistic expectations. Our insights are based on personal experiences, third-party data, and recent reports from both New Zealand and Indian media. We strongly advise seeking official guidance before making any final decisions on migration.
