First Nursing Job interview

Published

I'm going to be graduating at the end of this year from a nursing school and I have my first nursing job interview at end of this week and i am soooooo nervous. My last job interview was like almost 15 years ago. Any tip or advise on what kind of questions i should expect? someone told me to look up behavioral interview questions but i want to ask the experts who already went through this process:) Pls help. thanks

Wear business clothes, closed toe shoes

Shake hands with your interviewers-even if they don't offer their hands walk over and offer yours

Take several resumes and hand to each interviewer

If you do not know the answer to the question do not waffle on-stop, think, ask them to rephrase the question and if you still don't know be honest.

Write down a list of questions and ask them

Thank you so much for your advise. Is it good idea to ask for their unit's turnover rate? and does being shy consider as a weakness for this kind of interviews?
