Final Interview @ Cardinal Santos Medical Center

World Philippines

Published

Hi everyone! I am scheduled for a final interview at Cardinal Santos on the last week of April.. Do you have any idea on what type of questions would they ask? Is it like, "explain the pathophysiology of blah blah blah...." or anything that would make my nose bleed? (LOL!) Please help me.. I am now starting to review my nursing notes though.. Just want to have an idea how will the interview goes.. And please pray for me as well.. Thanks!

Hi guys! Anyone here took the initial exam last June 26? I haven't received any call or text from HRD.. Still hoping though.. :D

Anyway, from what I've read from the past posts (2011), the initial exam was actually an IQ exam, yet what I took last week was more on MS Nursing.. Was I in the wrong boat? :lol2:

I pray I'm still waiting for a good news...:nurse:

God bless us all!

I also took the exam last June 26 and i haven't received any feedback from them too. I am starting to think that I did not qualify since they informed us that they'll be reaching us within that week if we passed.. I have also tried contacting the number from the HR asking if they have released the results for our exam yet they are not responding to my texts. :sniff:

Hello, fellow nurses! I just wanna share my story...

I took the exam in CSMC last June 28. I called the person who's in charge with the application of nurses in HRD after a few days and asked if I passed the exam. He told me that I did (he even told me I got an 88%). Of course, I was sooo happy to hear the good news! Then, he instructed me to wait for his call regarding the schedule of my interview... But unfortunately, until now, he hasn't called. :(((( I called him 5 times (if I'm not mistaken) for follow up and his response was always like this: "You will be contacted for the schedule of your interview." Haaay, it's been almost 3 months, but still no calls from him. :( It's sooo frustrating in my part because I don't know the reason why I haven't received any update from the HRD, to think that I already passed their examination! And also, I turned down 1 work opportunity because of my application in CSMC. :( Anyway, I'll be having my training in World Citi Medical Center on October 1. I wouldn't want to waste MORE time waiting for a call from an HR staff in CSMC. Hay. Anyway...

May Your will be done, LORD! Don't lose hope, fellow nurses! Keep the faith! :)

Hi, I also took their test last month but unfortunately I got only 70% but they said that I could still retake the test. My only problem is that my IVT license was already expired so I have to renew it first.May I ask if you have a 2-3 years previous hospital experience and what kind of exam that you took,was it IQ test or Nursing board exam kind of test? Thanks.

That's what they said to my friend who failed the exam, she can still retake. No, I don't have work experience but the HR and NSO employees who I talked to said that they're also hiring nurses who don't have work experience... And in the first place, why will they even let me take the exam if they're not hiring nurses without experience (like me)? I'm just saying. :) Hehehe. I took a board exam-like test, with computations. Hay. I really don't know the reason why I haven't received any updates from them, to think that I passed their qualifications for applicants who don't have work experience (one should have an 80% and above board rating, and/or good scholastic record), I was also able to pass their examination, I have an updated BLS and IVT. Is it because I don't have a 'backer'? :( :( :(

I passed my resume on June 28 (morning). I took the exam on the same day (afternoon, around 2pm). It's a case to case basis I think. Some of my friends who applied there (before me) were contacted after few weeks. Good luck sir :) About the exam, if i'll rate its level of difficulty, it'll be around 6 to 8... Passing rate is 80%. Be sure to review on MS concepts, and get ready for the computations. :)
