Cleveland Clinic New Grad Rn one on one interview questions?

U.S.A. Ohio

Published

Hi,

I have a two one on one interview with Cleveland Clinic next week, and I was wondering what kind of questions are asked during the interview, what is the process like, and is there any tips that can be given? I would greatly appreciate any advice. Thank you!

@ Godsmissinangel1,

Did you get a one on one interview? I interviewed for a cardiac floor and a med/surg floor but also has telemetry.

Congrats on finishing both of your interviews! How did they go??

No, I haven't, I was told that a recruiter would schedule a phone interview with me and a nursing manager in 2-3 weeks. Then if I pass the second phone interview, I could possibly come in for a one-on-one interview. So I still have a ways to go in the process. I told her my preference was med/ surg so I might interview for a med/ surg unit.

Specializes in Med/Surg.

I interviewed in the MICU. They just chatted with me and cracked jokes and fed me Panera mostly to be honest. They asked a few basic questions about my background and why I wanted to be a nurse. Then I shadowed for a few hours and went home. HR called me on my way home and offered me the job immediately. I did not end up accepting because I got offered a job at Ohio State and that's the kind of place people stay long term so I took it.

I was offered both positions!! So, I had to make a decision. Now I have to take the physical capability test which I'm a scared I hear its hard. I work out three days a week with light weights, and I run. I hope I can pass!

Hi all! I know this thread is a few months old but I was wondering how long you waited in between your phone interview and a manager calling for a face to face. I had a phone interview last Thursday and HR said they were opening my application to the cardiac and med surg units:) Any responses would be greatly appreciated, I am so excited about the possibility of working there!!!!

I had less than a week total in between applying, phone interview, manager interview, and job offer.

Thanks for all of the info guys!! I am interviewing for a clerical position soon! Have a phone interview scheduled. Just a comment on the Physical Capability Test: Nursing Now | Cleveland Clinic This link will take you to a video of the test and what you should expect. Doesnt seem too bad! Good luck to everyone!

Good Luck Hyrdra! Thank you for the link with the video for the PCE, we discussed this on the phone so it nice to see it. I just had a phone interview with the Cleveland Clinic! Crossing fingers I get a call back from a nursing manager!

I was just recently hired in the MICU at Cleveland Clinic. I just took my physical capability test today, but am wondering if you also had to take a Basic ECG Test, Medication Math Test, and PBDS assessment.

I realize you posted this a year ago, but was wondering if you could give me on some insight on these tests if you had to take them as well. I want to do my very best!

Thanks!

Hi blizzard281 Congrats!! how was the whole experience for you?? I applied a couple of days ago and scheduled initial interview with a recruiter in a week

Congrats blizzard281!! I was curious, did you have your senior preceptorship on the ICU? I had my phone interview over a month ago which went great because I was placed in the "pool", and was wondering if it was normal to wait this long for a nurse manager to call. I wanted to apply for any cardiac floor including telemetry and CVICU, but the recruiter I interviewed with told me it was highly competitive and internal candidates were hired/looked at first. TIA for any insights!! Good luck everyone!!

How was the pce? I'm scheduled for mine soon and I never work out :/ other than that they also scheduled me for the PBDS, I asked the hr recruiter and was told that your offer does not depend on passing that test it's only to judge where you are and guide your orientation.
