It was an easy and casual interview. The manager was really nice and very approachable. We did the interview over Zoom, and it was about 15 minutes long. She provided a lot of details about the role, and it was straightforward.

The interview process involved a lot of questions asking for specific scenarios, like "tell me about a time when you provided great patient care but the patient was still not happy despite your efforts." They also asked the usual basic questions, such as strengths, weaknesses, and to tell me about myself.

Behavioral Technical

Had about two weeks of interviews, they weren't too tough. Some weird, unfinished questions, but nothing too hard for a nurse. Just be nice and tell your future manager you're fine with being yelled at by upset parents and will still do your job even without help from support or a supervisor.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • What action should be taken?
  • What is the proper response in this situation?
