Behavioral
Communication and expectations throughout the interview process were awful. No one explained the interview process to me. Then when I shadowed, the other nurses were incredibly unwelcoming. While they seemed to have great interpersonal relationships (which I admired), they excluded me and literally avoided eye contact during interactions. It was very strange and uncomfortable. I made more meaningful connections with the MDs on the floor than any of the nurses. Then, after the nurse manager told me they'd be in contact with me in a few days, I had to reach out to them after a week.

The whole interview process was virtual. It had three separate rounds: recruiter, manager, and peer interviews. This was the hospital's protocol because of the pandemic at the time. It's a strange experience not being able to see your work environment.

I had two interviews, and one went way better than the other. The managers seemed really open and enthusiastic about the role, and they wanted to make sure I understood exactly what the job entailed and how I could be successful in it.
