New Grad RN with interview at Children's Mercy needs help

Yes, the suit sounds very appropriate and yes, bring copies of your resume.

I don't know the details of the interview style at that particular hospital ... but if you do a search of this site, you will find lots of threads about interviews in general.

Good luck!

If you make it past the HR initial interview, you may be a good candidate. I hear Childern's Mercy is a very hard place to get employed and their HR department is notorious for screening candidates before allowing them to meet the nurse manager.

I work with a girl who had an interview with them for the PICU prior to graduating nursing school. She spent 2 hours alone with HR being interviewed by 2 people before she was allowed to meet the nurse manager. She didnt get hired.

I have another classmate who did get hired for the OR at Childern's, she spent 3 hours in HR prior to being taken to the OR manager. She did spent another 2 hours getting interviewed by a panel of people in the OR. Needless to say, she quit during orientation (OR nursing was NOT for her).
