Looks a lot more complicated now.
I know that a lot of Australian pharmacists worked here as they did the 'world tour' and most employers allow time as a sabbatical because they get well rounded people back at the end of it. For us now, the cost and the inability to work at your normal salary would put a lot of people off - especially those with partner and children. Probably best to a) get registered there _very_ early in your career. b)if there is a skills shortage get someone to sponsor you. c)if you've got relys (relatives) over there who can put you up cheaply it makes it even more worth looking into.
Would the last person to leave the UK please remember to switch off the lights, stop the milk and cancel the newspapers. Thanks.
