Finally got an interview

Hi Allnurses, I finally got an interview with the VA Hospital setup for next week. I put in plenty of applications with them online and someone finally called me back. The thing is, is that they said that I will receive about 20,000 less of what I am making now. They said that what I make now, their RN's make and I would take a huge pay cut. I wanted to know your advice on if you would take the chance of a pay decrease to get your foot in the door to finally get a nursing job? What I am doing now is not nursing (what I should be doing) but it is still with the government and I've worked my way up, it pays the bills and it has good benefits. I don't want to miss out on an opportunity of finally utilizing my nursing skills :nurse: or because is paying way less. WHAT TO DO? WHAT TO DO?:confused: Also they will be asking Performance questions, is there a website where I can go and study up on these Performance questions before my interview?

Thank you sincerely Allnurses for any and all replys!!:redbeathe

    Hello stillseeking,

    I have an interview in a few days, and have been actively pursuing a career with the VA. I was wondering if you would mind sending me some of the tips so I can nail the interview. I would really appreciate it very much.
