National University Nursing San Diego cohort 80

Published

Hi Everyone!

I seen a prior cohort post a forum similar to this to connect with other individuals applying to the program. Deadline for cohort 80 is August 9th. How is everyone feeling about it?

Hi, 

Can someone share the questions they asked today at the interview please?

Have my interview today it's on Zoom. Has anybody done their's yet? I feel like I prepared enough but I'm still nervous. Any help would be greatly appreciated! I will let you all know how it went after.

The interviewer asked me five questions from a list containing many questions in different categories. Here was my experience. Expect to be asked why you want to be a nurse - I think that's an obvious question to expect. I was asked why specifically National University over other institutions. I got a question about the importance of diversity in the workplace, so I asked as it relates to the practitioner, or the patients? The interviewer liked that I asked that and clarified that it could be either or both. How will you handle the rigor of such a fast-paced program? And finally, a question asking you to explain a time where you were wrong and had to admit or accept you were wrong and how you learned from that. Your mileage may vary, but these were the questions I was asked. I suspect everyone gets a variation of questions along these same themes. 

 

Good luck!

I think OK. Questions were pretty much exactly like what someone else had mentioned on here. 1. Why National? 2. Why you want to be a nurse? 3. What does diversity mean to you? 4. A conflict with a coworker? 5. How will you handle the rigor of the program ?
