I sent in my application online. A recruiter called me within a week and set up interviews for me at MacNeal and Loyola for the following week. Each interview involved meeting with a team leader, getting a tour of the unit, and then talking with 2-3 nurses who currently work there.

Behavioral Technical

I met with the department manager for about an hour. She talked about the position for 30 minutes, then asked questions for the remaining 30 minutes. It was a standard set of questions, and she wrote down my answers. I learned the salary was only $38/hour for Registry Float Level 1, with mandatory summer and winter holidays, plus one weekend every six weeks. Also, the float requirement is every 4 hours in a 12-hour shift, covering all adult units, mother-baby, and pediatrics.

You first meet with HR then the manager of the unit you're interviewing for. It wasn't a very rigorous interviewing process. It was pretty relaxed and both HR and the manager were very friendly and open. You go in a room with HR for a one-on-one where he/she asks you some basic questions and writes key words down--make sure to think of the best words you can for the position you're trying to get! Then he/she walks you over to where the unit you're interviewing for is. You then do the same with the manager. Overall, it wasn't bad at all compared to other interviews I've had.

Confirmed questions4 questions
