Not sure if you've already had your interview or not, but they might ask:

1. What qualifications do you have for this position?

2. Why do you want to change specialties?

3. How will you adjust to a higher nurse to patient ratio?

Just a few that I can think of. I hope this helps.

Good luck!

Congratulations on your new job! I will defer to others currently working ortho for some job tips.

Being very organized with a daily worksheet is one suggestion.

Hi guys,

I know this is a late response but I have an interview next week for an ortho/trauma RN at a level 1 trauma center. Can you give me some suggestions on what to expect at the interview. I've only been a med/tele RN with less than a year of experience. This is a very exciting opportunity for me.

Yes I have an interview as a ortho trauma nurse too. I love the position just thinking about it. I am sure it will ask specific questions unlike a med surg interview. But I have no idea. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
