I have just returned from the interview, first of all, I was there at about 15 minutes earlier, the receptionist telephone the nursing director, then she came down and said hi to me, then she said to give her 5 to 10 minutes, she did not return. After about over 1 hour of waiting, the receptionist paged her again and at that time, she asked for me to be interviewed by another person, well that person came and introduce themselve to me then she said she was going to get something to eat and she will be back, so I waited again for another 30 mins or so, then the receptionist page her again, then she asked me to come up to the second floor, this place look so good and clean. So she take me to the nursing station and interviewed me, this was her interview, when did you take the nclex, and when did you graduate, so I told her, then she gave me to scenario on paper, and she told me to write a nursing note for each. This was the first one: Mr. C was found unresponsive, B/P 90/60, and blood glucose 48mg/dl, what is your nursing intervention, write a nursing note on your intervention, I went bizarred, then I wrote, Pt found unresponsive, V/S unstable, B/P 90/60, pt was given glucagon, nursing supervisor was notified.
The second scenario was, Mr K was found with a hematoma to the left side of his head, what is your nursing action, so I wrote, Pt found with hematoma to left side, V/S stable, no apparent distress at this time, nursing supervisor was notified and incident report was made. Then she brought my answers to the nursing director then she said to me, do I want to work from 11-7, then I said from 7-3 or 3-11, then she said she will call.
Guys I think this interview was a show, I was very uncomfortable for the whole time, now I have to wait and see. Do you think this was an appropriate interview, did anyone else experienced this before, tthis was my first, so am very paranoid, thanks guys.
