Behavioral Technical
I applied and then got an email from a recruiter who asked me some basic questions over the phone. She then invited me for an in-person interview with the nurse manager about a week later. I interviewed with the nurse manager and then met with a group of nurses from that unit. They talked about their unit and asked how I would handle difficulties they face. About two weeks after the in-person interview, I got the job offer.

Behavioral Technical
I applied online and then spoke with HR. After that, I had a Zoom interview. The HR person was nice, but they didn't turn on their camera, so they could see me, but I couldn't see them. The questions felt repetitive, and it seemed like they were more focused on criticizing my resume than on whether they wanted to hire me. The interview was brief and felt awkward.
