Interview at Duke

Hi all,

I am graduating this May, and I have just received word that I will have an interview at Duke University Hospital next week. I was wondering if anyone had any interview tips for me? This is my very first interview (besides a life guarding job) so I need all the help I can get!

Thanks so much to everyone who replies!

Hi congrats on your interview! I have a few timeline questions if you don't mind because I am currently waiting. When did you send in your initial resume/application? I applied on March 4th and my submission status still says "open" and "resume received by Duke Human Resources." It has not changed at all like many here have said "under review" or "fwd to hiring managers" How long before you saw a status change? Also how long after that status change did you get an email to interview. It is just the waiting game, and not knowing that is so killer!

When you applied did you just select critical care as one of your two options and they fwd your resume to each of the critical care units hiring?

Last but not least when you sign in to check the status what is you requisition number?

I ask because when applying for the nurse new graduate program I only got to choose 2 general fields and I chose critical care and emergency. I am very interested in Neurology ICU because it is where I did my preceptorship at another hospital. Again good luck, and thanks for any help!

Thanks! I sent in my initial application on 2/25, which I believe was the day it opened or the day after it opened. I got an e-mail to schedule an interview on 3/13. I'm not sure if this happens to everyone, but I was contacted to interview BEFORE I was even notified that my app was forwarded to the manager. So if I were you I wouldn't pay TOO much attention to the status. Unfortunately, it is just the waiting game. But don't give up hope!

I also only had the option to choose 2 general fields, and not specific units. My first choice was critical care. I think they saw in my resume that I had preceptorships in the Neuro ICU and Surgical Stepdown and kind of combined them into Neurosurgery ICU.

I don't know exactly what the requisition number means, but mine is 100022014.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

Thank you so much that's my req number too. Hopefully I will hear something soon. Keep me posted after your interview please! Any information would be great. Congrats again!

I don't know much about neuro, I do know that 8 east is in the new DMP and is supposed to be the bomb to work in. I am in Duke North, which is the older part (not the original pat-Duke South where all the clinics are). If you have some experience they will love you. I did a shadow interview.

ConzRN-I got my phone call before the website caught up. I had applied for a few positions and they all said "sent to hiring manager" even after I had been offered a job. Also, if you don't hear right away, it is ok to call. My HR person had gone on leave before calling me and no one got the memo to call and offer me a job (:wideyed:) I was bummed and I called to find out I had a job.

Anyone apply to the residency that ends today 3/20? (((CLINICAL NURSE I - NEW GRADUATE RESIDENCY 100000314)))

How long did it take to hear back after the application for those who have already been interviewed?

Also I graduate in May... their orientations run June-Sept, I can never figure out if I need to be licensed before I apply or before the start date.

before start date. I did not start there, but my old job, you have to be licensed to start orientation. You are practicing from the git go. They asked me for license and degree when I went for interview

Is anyone else going to the open house on April 9th? I'm interviewing for PICU.

Thats awesome! good luck! when did you apply / how long did they take to respond?

Thanks! I applied the first few days of March and got an email from the recruiter about two weeks from then. You can also check your status on their website. Are you thinking of applying?

I applied the 20th, so later this week is my 2 week mark

ConzRN I am wondering how your interview went? I was told they had a record number of applicants in the feb/march applicant pool. Consider yourself very lucky! I hope all went well. Keep us posted I would like to hear about it!

I am going on April 9th and interviewing in the PICU and Pediatric Cardiac ICU! I am flying down from Boston and am super excited. Do you have the interview before or after the shadowing experience?
