New Grad Program Interview

Nurses Job Hunt

Published

So I applied at a children's hospital for their new grad program back in November. I ended up getting an initial interview, which was with an RN and a parent and her son. I walked away from that interview feeling like crap and knowing I just messed the interview up. Well, a few days later I got a call saying that I am getting a second interview- a unit intervierw! I just had it last Tuesday infront of 2 clinical managers, a nurse educator, and the co-lead preceptor for the ED. This time I walked out of there feeling really good. I don't hear anything till next friday though.....so please keep your fingers crossed!!! Thanks for letting me share :)

I hope you get it! A parent and their child in there too? I didn't even think about that possibility but I guess they needed to make sure you were completely comfortable with children. I am also waiting after being interviewed for pediatric rn residency program. They said I should hear "very soon" whether I got it or not.

I would love to be in the OR, but we didn't have that option. I interviewed for the ED. Keep me posted :)
