Peer Interviews with Methodist (SA)

dht183 · Jul 21, 2015

Hi, I know this was awhile ago, I just applied to the NICU residency and was wondering if you could give me any insight into the process? Did you go to the meet and greet? Do you have to be invited to it first? How was your peer interview? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Sure! I got hired into the NICU and just started on the 13th. It's been a fun process so far! So my advice to you would be first to find the director and send her an email saying you'd like to meet her and you are a new grad interested in working in the unit. If you meet her before the meet and greet it shows huge initiative and you have a "one up" on everyone else. Then hopefully you'll meet her, she'll interview and then you go to the meet and greet and interview again alongside many other people. Everyone is invited and all Methodist hospitals and many units will be there so bring a lot of resumes and expect to interview with a lot of people (also try your best to be at the front of the line for NICU-it will be a loooooong line), They will then decide to invite you to a peer interview where you will be interviewed by about 5 MCH employees that work in the NICU. They are managers, educators and charge nurses. They'll ask you everything you get asked in an interview: tell me about yourself, why did you choose NICU, etc. If you have any questions I would be glad to answer them! Good luck!

Hi, I can't private message yet because I am a new member! I have applied and I am interested in the interview process for the NICU! Did you get offered to do a digit interview via webcam before the meet and greet? I haven't heard of this before for this RN residency. I am unable to find the directors email, would you be willing to help me with that? Congrats on your job in the NICU!

Thank you!
