You need to contact hospitals in the state where you want to work. Be aware that your RN qualification is NOT transferable; you will have to take a conversion course to teach you American processes, procedures, drug laws etc.
If you can find a hospital to sponsor you (and you probably can, because we have a nationwide shortage of nurses) then they will handle the application process for you.

You are going to have to get in touch with the Board of Nursing Examiners in the state where you want to work.
