Hi!

I hope that I am not too late in posting... I interviewed at New Britain in the beginning of October and overall it was a pretty painless experience. First let me say that everyone there from the program director to the students to the MDAs is VERY nice and not looking to intimidate at all.

First I met with the program director and I had actually gotten a heads up about what to expect from another person on this board who had interviewed the week before. She basically covered exactly what he told me that she would which was: 1-ARDS pathophysiology and Tx?, 2- IABP indications and use?, 3- PA catheters their use and the effect of various pt conditions on the numbers?, 4- General info re:vasoactive gtts their indications and use in specific patient populations? For the other interviewee she did not lead in to these questions much and just basically let him talk about what he knew about these subjects. In my case she asked me to discuss a specific patient I had recently taken care of and we basically covered all of these topics (except the IABP which I have very little experience with so I just explained to her what I knew about it's indications and use and she seems satisfied with that).

Next I met with another staff CRNA then one of their MDAs then went on a tour with one of the students. Overall, like I said I got a very good feeling from the program.

Good luck in your interview!!

Feel free to e-mail me if you have any other questions,

Meghan,

Thanks for the info. I will be interviewing Tuesday. How long was your interview? I was told to expect to be there for 2 hours. I am flying in and out in the same day, so I hope it is not too much longer than that. I appreciate the information. Good luck to you on getting into the program.

Meghan,

Thanks so much for all the useful tips. I don't interview until the day before Thanksgiving, so I will give those topics a little extra attention. :)

Thanks again,

Megan
