Hi all! I thought it would be useful to post about doing a recorded interview because I did't find much when searching for information about it yesterday. I am interviewing for a travel position and was told my interview would be recorded and then listened to by the hiring managers. It was actually pretty straight forward and I was more nervous than I should have been. The interview was preceded by a short questionnaire that has to be completed first with some information about my experience including how large the facilities and units I worked on were, how many patient's I typically see in a day, how many beds on the unit, etc. It took less than 15 minutes to complete. Then they give you a number to call with a pin. You call and the recording states they will ask a question, give a short time to think about the question, then you given your answer after the beep. I had only 3 questions: 1. Talk about a time when you felt your patient load was too heavy and what did you do about it? 2. How did you handle a situation with a an angry or upset patient or family member? 3. Give an example of when you went above and beyond for a patient. I hope this helps someone else feel less nervous about interviewing as it is nerve wracking enough just doing job search and interviewing.
