The interviewer was great, very professional, caring, and attentive. They asked standard questions about my philosophy on my duties, my future plans, and allowed me to ask about the unit. They also touched on the start date and advancement opportunities.

First, I had to do an online IQ test, which was timed. The questions were basic but needed quick critical thinking. Then, there was a 40-minute virtual interview. Lastly, they set up an in-person interview before making the final decision.

Behavioral Technical
I had a peer interview with a staff RN who had 18 months of experience. Her questions were a bit tough, and not much of what I prepared was useful. They used a scoring sheet from 1-5 and a place for comments. Then, I interviewed with two leaders/higher-level managers. They asked different questions, but they were also difficult. After the interviews, we toured the hospital. The whole interview was challenging, but the interviewers were really nice. The process seems to involve a recruiter call, then the onsite interviews with the RN and leaders, followed by a background check and then an offer.

Behavioral Case
I was initially contacted by a recruiter for the nurse residency program. The overall process felt long primarily because I'm measuring the time from when I first applied to when I actually had the interview. It took about 5 days to set up the interviews after my application was submitted, and I ended up scheduling them for a later date. I've had other interviews with Tristar facilities before, which gave me a certain expectation. Typically, you meet with a panel of floor directors who have your resume and behavior analysis results, and they usually stick to a prepared list of questions, though they might ask more specific things related to your background, like being out-of-state or your clinical experience. They might also show you around the hospital, and sometimes there's a peer review. However, my experience at Stonecrest was different. The panel was smaller, as expected for a smaller hospital, but it felt very impersonal. They asked questions directly from a list, and I got the feeling they weren't really interested in my specific background or where I went to school. It seemed like they were just going through the motions, not genuinely looking to bring someone new into their team. After I asked my questions about the hospital, they thanked me and one person just opened the door and told me to press the green button to let myself out of HR. It felt a bit like being rushed out. I guess I might be used to a more personal touch, especially since this was the smallest hospital I've interviewed at. My TLDR is that I drove 5 hours and felt like they were just going through the motions and didn't seem to care much about my interview. I wouldn't recommend this location for a first interview, as it might have been discouraging if I didn't already have other offers.
