The interview process was pretty long. I started with a really conversational and easy phone interview with the hiring manager. After that, since I was living out of state, they set up a Zoom panel interview for me. It took about 4 weeks to hear back after that, so I followed up with the hiring manager. She then let me know they had already offered the job to someone else.

The interview process was smooth and the staff were nice. I felt welcomed and not intimidated. They asked mostly about my experience and a couple of scenario questions.

Got a call about 2 weeks after applying. The interview was great and included standard questions, plus some behavioral ones about teamwork and conflict resolution. I was told I'd hear back in 2-3 weeks either way, but never did. I tried reaching out to the floor supervisor and the nurse recruiter twice, and even sent a message asking for feedback on how I could improve. It was frustrating not hearing back, especially since they said I would. The interview itself was with a director, supervisor, and nurse educators, and they were all fantastic. I think a change was happening that caused some issues in the process.
