job fair for psych position

Published

I will be attending a job fair for a hospital hiring various positions- of which psych is one. This is the position I've been dreaming of at the hospital I've been wanting to work at for years. A lot is riding on this career fair. I want to be prepared for everything and, if given the opportunity to have an interview, would love to ask the hiring manager insightful, intelligent questions. I was hoping some of you could direct me.

If you were the hiring manager for your unit- what questions or concerns would you like to see a prospective employee ask? What could an applicant bring to the table that would really impress you?

Thanks in advance for any and all suggestions.

Specializes in psych.

One thing that I've always asked is "what does it take to be successful on your unit?" That answer will help you see a glimpse of what the culture is like as well as what the manager expects of you right away.

Perfect. Thank you. I like that it's general and open ended so it gets them talking. Thanks!

Thank you Lara. The job fair took place already and unfortunately, the interview didn't go so well. I appreciate your feedback though!
