Hi all,
Wanted to start a thread for those nurses looking at pursuing a career in nurse anesthesia through NorthShore. I just submitted my application today!! I actually went there and hand-delivered it. I was told by a current SRNA that a bunch of applications got lost in the mail last year. I spoke with the the admin assistant and she said that this year seems to have the strongest pool of applicants she has ever seen! So exciting and nerve-wrecking at the same time!!

How did you feel about the interview? Was it mostly clinical? I am anxious about the interview, any pointers for preparing?

I got an interview offer today as well. The email mentions a 15-minute essay on interview day. I'm assuming they're just getting a feel for writing skills, would that be an accurate assessment? I've also heard in years past that they do a math test. Is that still a thing?

No math test, nothing clinical. Very laid back and comfortable experience. Honestly - I wouldn't even fret about the writing. I'm sure they gauge your writing from it, but it is also probably considered part of the "interview" if you catch my drift.
