I had a med/surg interview last week, but I got a call today for another interview, in peds! I thought the med/surg job would be a dream, but peds, unbelievable!! Im so incredibly excited!! I'm a new grad, but I worked in a preschool during the summer, which I hope will be an advantage. I was a directors assistant, but basically ran the preschool while the director was doing lesson plans.
I love kids, their outlook on life, their excitement, I really would be honored to become a peds nurse! I told the nurse manager that I had an interview last week, I hope it didn't hurt my chances, but I hate to be offered the med/surg job while waiting to hear something about the peds position. I'm going up against a few other nurses, which increases my nervousness since I'm just a new grad.
I'm young, energetic, and get super happy just about all the time, but also can think quickly during an emergency. I hope this are positives in peds. Any suggestions? I really want this!!
I'm a little concerned about scenario questions. I know ABC's are priority, but I'm hoping I won't freeze up when asked!
