I applied and then two months later, I finally got an interview. It was over zoom with the nurse manager, nurse clinician, and nurse educator. They asked me about my past experience, why I wanted to work there, and my personal interests. I got an offer the following week and took it.

The interview process involved a lot of "tell me about a time" questions. There were so many that they sometimes repeated or could answer each other. It was tedious but manageable. It might be hard if you don't have much work experience to answer all the 15-20 situational questions.

Technical Behavioral Presentation

I applied for a job in early June and heard back over a month later to schedule an interview, which was then set for two weeks after that. The interview itself was a marathon 6 hours long, involving chats with 6 different people from various neurology departments. The first person I spoke with was the physician in charge of the specialty. Honestly, I think they should either split interviews over two days or, if the overseeing physician isn't keen, they should just tell the lead APP to stop the process. It felt like a total waste of my time. I knew pretty early on I wasn't getting an offer, but I still had to go through the whole demanding interview. I can handle one more 6-hour interview for a different specialty if offered, but be warned!

Behavioral Technical

The interview process was really rigid, and the interviewers felt like they had zero personality, which made things super awkward. They just asked a bunch of prewritten questions and didn't really ask me anything about myself or my background. It was hard to figure out what they were actually looking for or what the day-to-day of the role would actually be like.
