Ok, this is my first post so here goes. I am an LPN with 3 years experience and am 2 1/2 months away from graduation with my RN. I applied for some residency positions last night and got a call this morning. Now Im scheduled to be interviewed this Thursday. Any tips on interviews, questions, things you were asked etc?

Anyway, she only asked me a couple of questions that required nursing knowledge. They are mostly happy to have someone apply these days I think. It's the first interview that I've ever been to in my life where I felt like they were trying to impress ME! Before I left, I was offered the job and I accepted (cardiac step-down unit). It was exactly what I was looking for. So, don't worry. Especially as an LPN, you are ready for that job :)
