I don't post much, but I am reaching out for some opinions on an interview I had last week for a new grad residency. Some background about me: I was a medical assistant for two years at a family practice clinic which is affiliated with this particular hospital which I interviewed with. I also did my practicum at one of their several locations. I have a prior bachelors and masters degree in education and I am graduating from a bsn program. I felt confident with the interview at first, and now I am analyzing everything that I said, didn't say, or did during the whole thing. It has been a week exactly since the interview and although I feel that I have a lot to offer, I was very nervous during the interview. I answered some basic interview questions, two scenarios which I know we're answered correctly and two behavioral questions which I didn't prepare for at all because I thought it was a strict scenario based interview. I answered them to the best of my ability. I asked questions about the hospital and how the hospital promotes continuing education with their nurses, but I am really doubting myself. Any words of advice or thoughts about my post would be appreciated!
if it has been a week, it wouldn't be a bad idea to give a follow up phone call. Good luck! It's not at all unusual to wait a week or three to hear back. :)
Thanks! I feel like I've definitely relaxed over the past few days. I called the recruiter and left a message, but no call back, which I had expected. So, at this point it is just the waiting game. Thanks for your response!
