Interview information

I’ve tried to do some digging through this forum on flight nursing interviews, but there actually isn’t a whole lot, or answers are very vague. 
 

Can you share you me interview experience? If they ask scenario questions,  Do they just want to see if you have a firm grasp on ACLS, PALS, and trauma stuff? Or do they expect more?

Have never been involved with RSI/dosing other than assisting a physician in the hospital. But I know they RSI meds and have studied the dosages. 
 

I have a pretty good grasp of the different vent settings, how to get IBW for tidal volumes; but have never set up a vent or been allowed to make changes or anything to the vents in the hospital. 
 

my other big concern is, do they expect you to know the various critical care drips and their concentrations and how to mix them? For example levophed 16mg/250ml? The two hospitals I have worked at used various concentrations, some weight based and others weren’t; so I feel that aspect would be difficult to get if they expected that. 
 

does anyone have a good reference on pediatric dosing for drugs?
