Can anyone give any advice on what UNF Interviews are like? I got offered an interview and I know every school is different. I am not asking for specifics, I am mostly wondering if they will just ask me questions about my experience or if this is the type of interview where they throw scenarios at you and see how you respond. Thanks, any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

What schools do you personally know of taking NICU experience?

Hi. I have some experience with adults (2 years on Medical surgical floors and 1 year doing home care and hospice). I am currently work in our PNICU and have been here for a little over two years. Although I work in the PICU and then NICU my PICU experience is limited and I have mostly been in the NICU. I applied to a local CRNA school last year and they recommended that I move to a different unit for more experience with drops. Since covid 19 I was offered a position but they had to put all hiring on hold and the offer was retracted. That being said, I won’t have adult ICU experience prior to the next application deadline so I am looking into applying to more schools that will accept my current experience in the NICU. I have experience with high frequency ventilation and nitric, standard intubation and ventilation, blood product administration, IVH and micropreemie care, cheat tubes and I’ve had one patient on dopamine. I’ve found schools online that day they accept NICU experience but the few I’ve contacted say they prefer adult experience even though their site says they accept NICU. I’m wondering if any of you personally know of schools that truly accept and value NICU experience. Thank you!
