Interview questions

[wanderlea]

I have recently graduated from an ACNP program and passed my board certification. I have three interviews coming up and in acute care settings and I would like some suggestions on good questions to ask. I get very nervous during interviews and would like to go in prepared. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

What would your co-workers say about you?

Why do you want to work here?

Tell me about a conflict and how you handled it

Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

Tell me about the accomplishment you are most proud of

I just answered these for someone's thread on an RN interview as these questions held true for my NP interviews as well (and I went on 10+ interviews). I would imagine if the position is acute care specific they might present you with a scenario and ask how you would prioritize?

Good luck!

Sorry good questions to ask....

-What would a typical day look like for me?

-Shift? Call? Weekends?

-What would my mentor ship/ orientation be like being a recent grad?

-How many days are given for CME?

-How much for CME?

-What type of person does well here?

-Is there an option to work 4, 10 hour days?

That is a good idea to go in with questions for them...I would want to know:

1) what sort of support is available, esp being a new NP

2) how much training to the position

3) curious to know the turnover for the particular position

Good Luck!!!!
