interview with nurse manager-help!

congratulations!

here are a couple of websites you can check out that have lists of commonly asked questions during interviews for Nursing Jobs. business casual dress is fine. if you have a cell phone turn it off. you should take a copy of your resume with you and be prepared to leave it with who ever you are interviewing with even though you may have already turned in a resume. wear comfortable shoes as you will most likely be taken on a tour of the hospital and that involves some walking. start making a list of questions you have. save questions about benefits until you are getting to the end of the interview. before you leave, ask when you can expect to hear from them about a decision as to whether or not you are going to be hired and/or when you can call them back to find out.

this was a previous thread here on allnurses that had some good information posted on it:

also, do a search of the graduate nurse forum and the nursing career advice forum using the word "interview". i'm sure there are many previous threads by previous posters on this very same subject.

good luck!
