Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Registered Nurse Jobs at Sky Lakes Medical Center Jobs
Verify your NCLEX and state licensure first
Oregon requires an active RN license before Sky Lakes can move forward with any visa filing. Get your NCLEX results and apply for Oregon Board of Nursing licensure early, delays here push back every downstream step in the sponsorship process.
Confirm your credential evaluation covers nursing
If your nursing degree is from outside the U.S., get a CGFNS or NACES-approved evaluation that specifically assesses nursing program equivalency. A general academic evaluation won't satisfy the specialty occupation documentation Sky Lakes needs for H-1B filings.
Target units with consistent open requisitions
Sky Lakes regularly posts openings across med-surg, ICU, and emergency departments. Applying to units with recurring vacancies signals genuine workforce need, which strengthens the employer's case when filing a Labor Condition Application with the DOL.

Find Registered Nurse at Sky Lakes Medical Center JobsFrequently Asked Questions
Does Sky Lakes Medical Center sponsor H-1B visas for Registered Nurses?
Yes, Sky Lakes Medical Center has sponsored H-1B visas for Registered Nurses. Registered Nursing qualifies as a specialty occupation under USCIS guidelines when the role requires a Bachelor of Science in Nursing or higher. You'll need an active Oregon RN license and a credential evaluation if your degree is from outside the U.S. before the petition can be filed.
Which visa types does Sky Lakes Medical Center use for Registered Nurse roles?
Sky Lakes Medical Center sponsors H-1B visas for most international Registered Nurse hires. They also accommodate F-1 OPT and CPT for nursing graduates completing practical training, and TN visas for Canadian and Mexican citizens whose nursing credentials meet USMCA requirements. The right pathway depends on your citizenship, current status, and degree.
What qualifications does Sky Lakes Medical Center expect for Registered Nurse positions?
Sky Lakes typically requires a current Oregon RN license, a BSN or associate degree in nursing (with BSN preferred for many specialty units), and NCLEX-RN passage. Relevant clinical experience in med-surg, critical care, or emergency settings strengthens your application. International applicants should have a CGFNS or NACES evaluation confirming U.S. nursing program equivalency.
How long does the visa sponsorship process take for a Registered Nurse at Sky Lakes Medical Center?
Timeline depends on the visa type. H-1B standard processing runs three to six months after USCIS receives the petition, with an October 1 start date for cap-subject filings. TN approval can be granted at the port of entry in a single day for eligible Canadian citizens. F-1 OPT authorization takes roughly three to five months through USCIS after your DSO files the I-765.
