Panel interview in Northside

love0509 · Feb 2, 2016

Hi! I had an interview two weeks ago with Northside and it was panel style. There were 4 nurse managers for the Mother Baby Residency/Internship. It was not as nerve wrecking as I thought it would be. I was showed around the unit before the interview. They asked me scenario questions such as:

Why do you want to work for Northside?

Tell me a time where you provided exceptional customer service?

Name a time where you had to think on your feet.

Name a time where teamwork was involved.

Has there ever been a time where you noticed yourself not paying attention to detail and had to correct your self. (This can be from any job).

What you do in a situation where someone is refusing a procedure for their child?

What would you document when assess a dressing? Why is documentation important?

If you noticed a co worker doing something that makes the hospital look bad and/or putting the patients in danger, what would you do?

Can you think of a time that you were late to to work? or missed work?

I have to apologize, because I can't remember every question. But they were "basic". Be personable, energetic, sincere, honest, dress professional, and be on time. I walked out of my interview feeling like I could have answered some of my questions better but, that same day I received a call from HR offering me the position!

What unit are you interviewing for?

Good LUCK!

Hey there, thanks for replying!

I interviewed one on one with the unit manager. It was pretty much the same questions. It is for the Internship as well in the med-surg unit in Forsyth. Congrats on getting the job!

All those questions will help me prepare... If you think of something else let me know :)

My interview was for the position that starts in March. But, that is for the Mother Baby unit. I am not sure when the other units start. I will say that they always host open houses, which is what I went to after applying and at the open house they stated that there will be more openings in August I believe. They have multiple New Grad Internships starting throughout the year. Call HR to get exact information. They are really nice and are willing to help in anyway!

Hello!

How are you liking the Mother Baby unit at Northside? I applied for Spring 2018 residency. Can you give me any information about the nursing culture, how the managers are (personable, approachable), average patient load, a usual day on the unit, staffing? Do you feel the training you received was adequate? Any information regarding New Grad pay, shift/weekend differentials, benefits, etc would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for any input!
