Nurses General Nursing

I attended an interview 2 weeks ago today. I thought i did well. It was for another nursing role in the same hospital i currently work in. Only another ward. My referees have not been contacted.

I am in Australia, NSW Health is the entity i'm applying too.

Could i have not got the job and they don't tell me, Could they have a very slow recruitment process.

It's really confusing i put so much effort in to the interview. Yet now i feel it was all a waste. Self esteem has lowered almost to feeling pointless going for other roles.

bump..

I don't have any experience with intra-agency transfer. However, one hospital where I applied (and got the job) took over 4 weeks to call back. It was maddening.

I would suggest continuing on with your job search and apply for other jobs. It's possible the company is really slow at hiring (I once got a call 6 months later!) but it's also possible that you did not get the position. Either way, it would be good to focus your energy on applying for other jobs.

Specializes in Palliative, Onc, Med-Surg, Home Hospice.

At my current job, I had been interviewed in Feb (a couple years back) and didn't hear back from the manager until mid-april and then heard nothing until May when Iwas offered the job. Sometimes it takes time

Interviewing is never a waste. It can take a VERY long time for managers and HR to communicate.

Two weeks is nothing for management and HR to get together, and then make you an offer or send a denial notice. I have waited for MONTHS for feedback.

You cannot let your self esteem be crushed by ANY one interview. I had 20 + interviews before I found my dream job.

Even if you did not get THAT position.. keep on.. keeping on.

Best of luck, let us know how it turned out.
