Congratulations to Alyza Mae, MT, who recently completed the first step in the American Dream with PassportUSA.
I joined the program 5 years ago, when I just passed the board exam and got my first job in the Philippines. Looking back at my application process, it was smooth sailing because all I have to do is to comply with the requirements that my advisors requested me to send. Even in the midst of the pandemic, my advisors didn't fail to call and email me their regards. I am grateful to all of my advisors starting from the recruitment team until my deployment advisor, Ma'am Janis, for their hardwork dedication and patience with me along the process.
What I learned during the process is that even though it may take some time, if you don't give up on your dreams and pursue wholeheartedly God will make a way!
To my fellow nurses and other professions under the agency with ongoing application, your time will come in God's perfect timing, enjoy the process and always communicate with your advisors. They are willing to help and guide you all throughout your journey.
We are beyond excited for you Alyza Mae! Congratulations again on achieving your American Dream! We wish you the best as you continue to navigate your U.S. nursing career.
