You can always send in your resume via email or snail mail to the local hospitals here, thereby they will arrange an interview with you so you have to make a trip here. If you are coming in, you can apply for a social visit pass when you come in as a tourist. The hospital will arrange the necessary papers for you once your job is confirmed.
