Hey guys! I am starting this for the March 2024 Cohort at CHLA. As people hear back about interviews, hopefully we can update each other.

Interview was 30 minutes. 12 people were there to listen and score you....scary I know?. They were all very nice tho and only one person was asking the questions. Asked about a time you had to work as a team, had a problem on the unit, took a shortcut, qualities you want in a coworker, strengths, DEI questions, etc. 

thank you so much for the insight! I bet you did great! ☺️ did they also ask the basic questions like why chla, why you wanted to go into nursing, etc like in the first interview?

a panel of 12 is insane ?? but I'm sure you did better than you think! ? 

What's a DEI question ?

heart institute cross train interviews today ! : did anyone interview with staff or was it just the managers ?

IDK if this is too late of a response but last time it was a panel. The unit manager and then like 5 or so nurses from the unit. A few charges and few staff nurses if I remember right 

hi! I have a second interview with CTICU tomorrow. does anyone have any insight on what qs they might ask?

Thank you so much for your advice/tips! ?????I'm sure you did amazing! My interview ended so early so I'm not too sure if I did well ??? but I wish everyone luck! you all got this!! ??

I had my interview with Duque yesterday too, and there were alot of DEI questions! However, I feel like it went pretty well, and they were all super nice! I had a very nice experience. They told me I should hear back by next Monday if I was chosen. But, HR told me today it could be until next Thursday or Friday. I'm proud of those who did interviews! Now, we wait! ? 

Had my interview with 4 East. I cannot remember too many questions however they asked a fair amount including behavioral questions. Such a sweet group of interviewers. Questions like Why the floor, where do I see myself in 5 years, and diversity. Said we should hear back by December 11 or the end of that week. Sending positive vibes ! Good luck everyone! 

Hi I had my interview with cticu earlier today. All behavioral questions. Are you guys emailing the interviewers a thank you email? Not sure how necessary that is, plus IDK their emails ?

Hi! How did ED interviews go today? 

I have mine tomorrow and I'm soo nervous!

Good luck to everyone who is interviewing in all units :)!!

Hi! I had an interview on CTICU as well! Mine did not go well but thats okay. I was very nervous and it showed. I wanted to send them emails but couldn't find any. How did your interview go? I wonder how many spots are available on that unit.
