The interview involved many situational scenarios, like dealing with an unconscious patient, patient assessment, and specific conditions such as CHF and pneumonia. They also asked about medication side effects, tube feeding procedures, and tough situations. Questions were direct, covering how to handle difficult patients and families, what to do in certain scenarios, and who to report to.

Getting a response can be tough and it really depends on the interviewer. Best to be prepared and keep applying. Good luck! Try to steer clear of office politics and make sure you research everything. I'd suggest looking online and checking out other interview questions. It's pretty basic stuff.

I sent in my application online and about a week later, I got an email asking me to take an exam. The exam included Medical Terminology, English, and a Typing test. After I passed those, they scheduled an interview. There were two interviewers who wrote down my answers to their questions. They asked a lot of questions, mostly situational ones. I think I made a mistake when I was answering a question about prioritizing who to book.
