Those of you that got accepted or at least offered an interview, do you have any experience as being a CNA or MA? Or something that made you stand out on your resume?

I don't think I have anything special tbh. I have a BSN and my license already. No medical experience, no volunteer work even. I do have a past work history in education. During video interview, I focused on their values as a hospital and valuing teamwork (seems to be one thing you should always mention when you can). During the interview, I connected with her in that we went to the same nursing school. I was able to answer most of the clinical questions she asked, and when I struggled I offered the knowledge I did know. And with personal questions I focused on valuing team work again, always learning (in personal life too), and my personal lifestyle improvement journey. These are things it seemed she was happy to hear from me. I also tried to maintain an attitude of if it's meant to be it will be, and any program would be lucky to have me on the team! When asked where I see myself in 5 years, I said I would ideally be on the same unit I start a new grad program in, continuing to gain experience in not just nursing skills, but in leadership (charge nurse) and as a mentor to new incoming nurses. I hope this helps, and at least gives hope that you don't have to have an exceptional medical work history, or already know someone there to help you get in.
