First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at PIH Health.
Registered Nurse
New grad interview - we went into an auditorium where there were several tables set up, each with one person interviewing candidates. The interviewers included educators, the director, managers, and charge nurses. They asked questions about prioritization and your thoughts on the population we serve, as well as why you're interested in PIHGSH.
- What are your thoughts on serving this population, given the high incidence of OD cases, the unhoused population, and poly-substance use cases?
- Why PIHGSH?
Licensed Vocational Nurse
It was a pretty easy-going interview, just some behavioral and nursing questions. They said to prepare and come professional. The meeting was with two people in a small office and lasted about 30 minutes.
- Could you introduce yourself?
- What's your background?
- Can you describe your experience?
Operating Room Technician
They want to know if you're familiar with basic instrumentation and general, OBGYN, ortho, and thoracic cases. If you don't know a specific case type, they're willing to teach you.
- Do you know basic instrumentation?
- Are you familiar with general cases?
- Do you know about OBGYN cases?
New Grad RN
The interview process went a lot better than I expected! I was interviewed by the Nurse Manager and three other nurses for a position in the NICU, and they were all very easy to talk to and super nice. At the end of my interview, they even gave me a tour of the unit and introduced me to the Nurse Director. Overall, not intimidating and was a great experience.
- Can you introduce yourself and share what drew you to working with infants?
- What is your primary motivator?
- What are your aspirations for the near future and the more distant future?
