Pediatric Interview

Hi Everyone!

New grad here, interviewing at a few different hospitals, mostly neuro (adult) population but now (a little unexpected) have an interview for an amazing pediatric hospital in a neuro/endocrinology unit! I am super excited to have this opportunity but feel very unprepared compared to others interviews. During nursing school, I did not choose pediatrics as any of my rotations as precepted time, so was only exposed to peds during the 4 week rotation with a group. As far as outside of school kid experience, I have been a full time nanny and babysat whenever possible, and briefly worked as a school aide for after school activities. I feel as though they will probably drill me with questions as to why I love pediatrics, and while I do, I don't have that one inspiring story or instance to make myself stand out.

I guess I am just looking for some advice on typical pediatric-focused questions I can expect and possibly some suggestions how to approach these questions

Thank you!

    You are a new grad and are not expected to have knowledge on Pediatric Nursing. They will not quiz you on what you learned in your Pediatrics class. It will be a "get to know the person" type of interview. "why do you want Peds?" will be the only Peds related question. The rest are going to be situational questions. "Tell me about a time that you had a disagreement with a co-worker and how did you handle it?" type of questions.
