nursing school interviews

Like any other job interview. Here is the link to Monster.com's job interview help page. http://interview.monster.com/?WT.srch=1Important things to remember:

Listen to your patterns of speech, and see if you have a chat habit like "you know" or "the thing is".

Another common thing people do is finish someone's sentence. Make sure you completely listen to the interviewer's whole question.

A modified version of how to testify in court. Answer what you were asked only. The severe extreme of this is "Barbara do you have the time?" (wrong answer is yes it is 12:30) the correct answer would be "yes I have the time" Let the interviewer ask "what time is it? " and then tell the time.

Good luck!

you can expect questions like "why do you want to be a nurse" and "what are your long-term goals" or "tell us about your work history". I would practice a little with answers that do not sound contrived. They are looking for people who can show signs of intelligence by being conversant and signs of maturity by being able to verbalize goals. I wanted to earn more money, but what I said was "I want to earn the opportunity for personal growth". Good luck.
