Registered nurse jobs in Singapore
Employment Pass (EP): Two stages: the age-based qualifying salary, then at least 40 points on COMPASS (salary against the sector, qualifications, and the employer’s nationality mix and local hiring). A job on the Shortage Occupation List earns bonus points but doesn’t lower the salary. First pass up to 2 years, renewals up to 3.
Foreign-trained nurses need a programme equivalent to Singapore’s, current registration at home, clinical practice in the last 5 years, and a job offer from an eligible Singapore institution, whose HR applies to SNB for you. You then pass the SNB licensure exam. Registered nurses are on the COMPASS Shortage Occupation List.
