it's not an exam, it's an interview regarding your basic nursing skills from all the nursing courses.

Re: SLMC-GC technical interview

hi.. the questions are essay type.. they would throw out situations and then, would ask you, wat are you going to do with those instances..
but the whole interview would focus on core competencies of nurses..
for example, 1st core is safe and effective care. you would be in a panel with other applicants, and the main topic is safe and effective care, but the interviewers would throw different scenarios to all applicants..
there are 10 core competencies if im not mistaken, so that would be 10 questions for each of the applicants but that depends if there would be follow up questions based on your initial answer..


hope this helps!

Re: SLMC-GC technical interview

just read your prof ad. book. read and understand the core competencies of nursing. i passed the technical interview woohoo!

This is the competency based iterview questions, these kind of interview questions has been the trend to determine "what will a competent nurse do" in a specific situation or if your experienced nurse "what did you do before" in a specific situation.

Questions like

1.you were given 4 patient, pt A, B, C, D who will you take care first?" This will determine how you prioritize based on your critical nursing skills.

2. Is there a time where you encounter a diificult family members? This will determine your people management skills

Competency based question can be behavioral or critical type. Again, this will determine "what will a comptent nurse do?".

Re: SLMC-GC technical interview

newbie here. i felt the need to register on this site because of my anxiety for my technical interview scheduled this wednesday afternoon. please, anyone, give me some tips on how will i prepare for this interview. i just received the text message from ms. gianna of slmc-gc this afternoon and i am not so sure if i have ample time to prepare. i have already read here that the questions primarily revolve on the core competencies in nursing but it would help a lot if you could site specific topics which i should i focus on or sample questions from the interview perhaps. i got to be honest, i am not so confident with my nursing knowledge and skills right now because i graduated back in 2006, had my license the same year but have not practiced professionally in a hospital since that time. i just wish somebody who is already in the training right now or at least done with the technical interview especially those who just had it recently will be able to read this post and of course reply before it's too late. thanks a million. your response will surely be appreciated.
