Job Interview in ER

Nurses General Nursing

Published

Well, I had my job interview for the ER tech position today. I was so nervous! This would be a GREAT learning experience for me. (I'm a nursing student wanting to specialize in trauma) However, I didn't have the EKG experience he wants, nor any blood draw experience. But he did say that that could be trainable for me.

I'm not sure if I'll get it or not. It went great as far as the interview, but do you think he'll hire someone that he has to train in EKG & blood draws, or hire the student nurse that can already do that stuff? :(

Happy Birthday, I think you should be hired, usually in orientation they have an EKG class anyway. And learning to draw blood is something you learn on the job anyway! Good Luck!

Same with blood draws. Usually they give you a class in orientation regardless if you have done them before or not. EKG's are easy to learn. Good luck!!
