How Long Does It Take to Get a Job After CORU or HCPC Registration?
Getting registered with CORU in Ireland or HCPC in the UK is a major step toward starting your career as a healthcare professional overseas. But many candidates wonder—how long will it take to get a job after registration is complete?
The answer depends on a few key factors like your profession, experience, location, and how well-prepared you are. At Evenhanded Overseas Consultancy, we help you every step of the way—from HCPC registration assistance to finding the right job opportunity.
What Happens After You Get Registered?
Once your CORU or HCPC registration is approved, you are officially eligible to apply for healthcare jobs in the UK or Ireland. But job placement is not automatic—you still need to:
-
Create or update your CV
-
Apply to open positions
-
Attend interviews (in person or online)
-
Complete any local orientation or onboarding
That’s why we also provide overseas healthcare registration services that include job search guidance and application support.
Estimated Time to Get Hired
Here’s a general idea of how long it may take:
| Stage | Average Time |
|---|---|
| Registration Approval (HCPC or CORU) | 3–6 months |
| Job Search & Interview Process | 1–3 months |
| Visa & Relocation (if required) | 1–2 months |
So, from the time your registration is approved, it usually takes 1 to 3 months to secure a job, depending on how active and prepared you are during the job search.
