Thanks for the information. It is early days to be sorting out locum work for September yet? I use to do emergency locums and didn't book anything more than two weeks a head of schedule. That’s nice to see you still have contact and a place in London, I don't know what to do whether to sell my place in England and move out for good.

I do have hospital experience and would love to get a job with a hospital in the USA since I know how much if a different environment it is compared to retail. Some Hospitals have outpatients or a retail pharmacy in them so you can get the best of both worlds and if I get that it would be great.

What’s your working week like 40 hours and how many weeks holiday do you get?

I am currently working as a PCT pharmacist in England and working a 37.5 hour week and 5 week holiday. Jut that I know things are different in the USA. My Ideal location to move out us California the bay area where I have visited many times and I know it is very nice to live; it can be a nightmare with a 12 hour flight.

I have tried to contact hospitals and retail direct but no luck directly, I have spoke to a few over the phone and they want me to come straight out but the only thing that is hindering is the H1B. So once I get that I will be there in a flash.

Regards
