I applied online and got an interview request 3 days later. It was a Zoom call with two RN hiring managers from the department. They were relaxed, and since I've been an RN for about 4 years, I wasn't too nervous.

Behavioral Presentation Other

It was a panel interview with multiple managers, professional development specialists, and educators. It was just me, no other interviewees. They gave a 30 minute time window for the interview. It was rapid fire questioning. They gave time at the end for me to ask questions. There were no second interviews, unlike some other competitive residencies where you do a unit level interview as well. John Muir did not require this. I got the offer the next day.

Behavioral Technical

The interview process began with a 30-minute phone interview. After receiving a job offer, there was a meet and greet. I was presented with choices for different units that matched my experience and had the freedom to select the unit I preferred. This was a positive aspect. I had the opportunity to tour the units, interact with some of the staff, and I spent a significant amount of time with one of the managers.
