Interview Preparation help... PLEASE!?!

I just wanted to better prepare myself for interviews, specifically screening and panel. Clinical questions and critical thinking questions are going to be a part of the interview and I was wondering if you all could help me with possible questions for both categories? It's been a little difficult to find lists of questions alone.

I am beyond nervous to be in front of a group of 3-5 people.. alone. Any pointers for dealing with interview anxiety as well?

Any help at all would be GREATLY appreciated :)

Hey there,

Best of luck on your interview! I would google The Complete Guide to Successful Interviewing for Nursing Students and Alumni. (John Hopkins University)

It is a wonderful resource and I hope this helps you. As far as clinical questions, as many of the members on this website have suggested, focus on ABCs. You may want to review what you would do if your post op patient's vitals signs are going south. Or a patient is SOB due to CHF.

I just had an interview and although I practiced dozens of questions, I still ran into questions I had not gone over...even in this case, practicing will help with the nerves. Invite friends/family over for lunch and have them read questions to you, and practice formulating your answers out loud.

And, most importantly remember that you got this interview because you have already proven to them that you are more than qualified. This is now just an opportunity for them to get to know you as a person! (That was a great advice I got from a friend)
