Hello everyone,
I was fortunate enough to receive an interview by Bethesda Memorial Hospital in Boynton Beach, Fl for their new grad RN training program. I was advised by the HR recruiter that I will need to take a medication test before the interview and pass with a minimum of 80%. Is anyone familiar with this test. Im not asking for actual answers for the questions. I just would like to know the level of difficulty, the kind of questions they ask (like is it a medication calculation test or a content analysis- will i need to know certain drugs, their side effects and their safe range)? How many questions are on the test? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated :)

Hi Brownie! I was wondering how your application experience was with Bethesda? Did they state how long the program was? Are you binded by contract to work for them after the program? How was the interview & the medication exam? Have you started yet (if so, what area)?
Sorry for all the questions. I just submitted my application for their new grad RN program and I'm very nervous/anxious!
Hey Gator2Cane,
I got the Job at Bethesda, but I had to turn it down because i received another opportunity at another local hospital which had a better residency program as well as better pay (Bethesda starts at $21.40 with a $3.50 night diff). After you submit you app, they cipher through it and then schedule an interview if they are interested in you. From there, you take the math test in the HR office (and if you pass) you interview with the HR Nurse recruiter and then you get interviewed by the unit (all on the same day). The test was super easy, ten questions, med math.... what would you monitor on a pt receiving xyz....again, i emphasize super easy. I intervied on Thursday afternoon and was hired by friday morning. The interview was basic...with the Charge Nurse, the unit director and the Nurse educator....standard interview questions. Just be positive and confident in yourself and you will land any job you want!!!! Wishing you the best in ALL you endeavors!!!!!!
