Interviewing for ER Residency

Specialties Emergency

Published

I have an interview for an ER residency in about 3 weeks. There's a group of 10 of us going for 6 openings. They are taking us all on the same day, addressing us as a group first, explaining the residency program, expectations, etc. and then interviewing us individually. It will be an all day affair, and we will be interviewed by a panel of people.

Any suggestions, hints, advice for how to prepare for this? I just graduated with my BSN, did a 267 hour preceptorship in the ER (at a different hospital), and REALLY REALLY want to land this job, as it is in my desired specialty area. I know I'm really lucky to have the chance to interview in the ER as a new grad and I don't want to blow it! Thanks in advance! :)

Specializes in ED, Clinical Documentation.

Do you think not having your RN yet was a factor? You said you are studying for your NCLEX..?

No... They knew many of us were new grads, and I asked it, if I needed to mive my date up (residency starts Feb. 11) and she said I had plenty of time... I just didn't stick out enough, I guess.
