I am interested in attaining a job at either Salinas Valley State Prison or the Men's Colony in San Luis Obispo. I have taken the online exam ranking me at 85%, which is in tier 5. I have military experience that hopefully increases that ranking, as the top three are 100% and above. Does anyone have any experience they can relay to me in regards to this list and what the expected wait is until I am able to apply, interview for a job? Calls to the state job board and prison contact have not been returned or they have not known the answer to any questions.
I too have an interview in correctional/mental health nursing (Napa State Hospital) and would appreciate it if anyone could share information about the interview. I'm a new grad and really don't know what to expect. What types of questions, any advice, etc. I am a new poster and don't have PM access. Thanks for any help
Hi,tcoulter. I want to know how was your interview with Napa State hospital? What do they ask? and i heard they have physical ability test too, was it that hard? i m scared with the Physical test coz i dont exercise usually so i am really scared? Can you please tell me more about it..thank you
I haven't received my results yet so I don't know for sure but I think the interview went well. I'm prohibited from disclosing the actual questions I was asked because they're standard for everyone. I will say that it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought and I was pretty nervous. If you interview make sure you review psych and basic nursing knowledge. The physical is only if you're ready for hire and I think it's just to rule out major medical issues (not like boot camp or anything!) I'll let you know when I find out my results. Are you interviewing there?
