Has anyone experienced the five minute interview with Sutter Delta's RN Internship?

Published

Hello everyone, this is my first post to allnurses.com. I just recently graduated with my bachelor's degree in registered nursing in March 2013 and got my license in June and have been applying to every job available under the sun for the past month and a half with nothing but rejection after rejection. Despite that I just got a phone call from Sutter Delta's RN Internship Program and my interview is scheduled for August 14th, 2013. They told me that the first interview is five minutes and within that five minutes I need to be able to wow the panel. What I want to know is if anyone has experienced that interview. Is the interview focused on more personality driven questions and what you would do if you had a conflict with co-workers, managers, and the sort or is it mainly technical questions? For example, If a patient is suffering from a narcotics overdose what would you give to treat them? I just want to know about the first interview, the five minutes, because I am sure after the first interview the second interview will most likely consist of technical questions. Please, those that have experienced this interview please reply. Even if you know someone who went through it and you know their experience, please reply to this topic.

I don't want to go into details but it was the most difficult interview I had to do. Lets just say I wasn't prepared for what they had me do. I don't think they are going to select me

please give me some insight on this 5 minute interview, now I'm very nervous!!!!! Thanks

Can anyone give some insight into the interview and program? I am curious how the program is and also curious about the interview process. TIA

confused06, could you please give an example of an interview question for the 5 minute speed interview? TIA
