Hey! I actually have my interview this afternoon (send all the good vibes please). I can let you guys know what they ask and how it goes.
I've been intensely looking through previous threads to see how the interview process goes down and this is basically what I found and compiled together:
Tell us about yourself and your background.
Why FIU?
Why DNP (or MSN, whichever you're doing)?
Why your specialty (Pedes, FNP, Psych, etc)?
Leadership/Community service experience (supposedly FIU values this a lot)?
What do you see yourself doing in 10-15 years?
Elaborate what you meant on your statement when you said ________ (in other words, be familiar with your resume/CV and your statement of interest!).
Have you published an article?
A clinical question. For one thread, they said that they selected a question from a fish bowl. For another thread, they said the question was specific to the specialty you are applying for, so do with that information what you wish!
And then from like Youtube videos and other message boards they really stress for us to understand why exactly we want to be an NP and that we should be sure to truly understand the scope of an NP. And as always, keep it positive (no negative talk about like not liking the bedside and that's why you want to be an NP, for example). I've also been crafting an idea for a strengths and weakness answer just in case. Oh! And of course, be prepared with some questions to ask them that aren't easily found on their website!
I hope this helps! Good luck to all!
