I just got an email this afternoon!

YAYY congrats!!

I just got an invite!! ????

I got my invite for an interview yesterday at 11:30 pm. Submitted my application back in February but ended up resending it again a day or two before the deadline cause I wanted to update my hours. Good luck everyone! ? 

Specializes in Doula (PP + birth).

Hi!! 

I too got my interview due by July 5. Did it today and so excited and nervous for final decisions. It said 4-6 weeks from the interview date but I’m hoping the answers come sooner! 

Good luck to everyone!!

To those who already interviewed, was it similar to questions on the mock interview? Easier/harder 

Just got the interview email. Good luck to everyone! ??

Also, will the link be deactivated at 9am on Thursday or Friday? I think there was a typo.

Whoever has been interviewed, please advise on what the questions were like!

Yes! How was the interview? Please give some advice on how it went!?

Kinda off topic from the thread but is anyone planning on working while being in the program? Or just working while going to nursing school in general?

It was pretty good. I do prefer face-to-face interviews because I can better gauge my responses and sense if I answered appropriately. The set up is a lot like the mock interview. Each question (6 in total) are given by a pre-recording of a faculty member who gives a very brief background of themselves and then asks a question. You then have 2 minutes to think and 2 minutes to answer (1 take only). Watch the prompted “training” videos at the beginning to fully feel prepared even if you did the mock questions.

I believe this school is truly trying to see who you are as a person and future nurse rather than the traditional questions/answers. So just breathe before each question and feel confident and of course be yourself!!

No but I am a mom to two little ones (4 and 6 years old) so does that count? LOL

Yes! Being a mom is a full time job! That definitely counts haha

also in regards to the interview, did you prep for it or did you just wing it? LOL
