Providence New Grad 2025 Interviews

Published

Hello! Has anyone who applied to Providence when applications opened up on June 6th heard back yet regarding setting up an interview? I was told the process is different from last year. They said they would reach out for setting up interviews starting June 12th.

Not all the hospitals pay like this I think, my hospital just pays 50.7 base pay throughout the 12 hour shift, at least that is what it says on my payslips, even when I did education for 8 hours I got paid 50.7 per hour, so maybe its different per hospital. Or I could be reading this wrong and not understand anything and could be wrong.

Do you work days or nights?

I mean obviously it depends on the hospital, the unit, even the specific hiring managers interviewing you but I honestly put most of my effort into being funny and likable vs having perfect answers to their scenarios. The questions themselves were clinical in nature but they were pretty fundamental questions that anyone who graduated from nursing school should be able to answer to some level of confidence and they articulated they weren't interested in a know it all, they were looking for someone who would be safe and coachable and be a good fit for the unit in terms of personality.

It's easy to clam up when asked these questions, we instinctively want to rattle off the "correct" answers, every sign, symptom, indication, treatment, everything in all the tables of the textbook, and feel anxious when we can't. They don't want to know that stuff. Yes they want to know that you remember broadly what kind of treatments are indicated for CHF, sepsis, etc. But more than that they want to know that you will pay attention to your patient's trends, advocate for them, and know when to call for help when things are going south. They want to know that you're someone who will be an asset to the team, that you will help your fellow nurses turn that bariatric patient at 3 AM, and you won't complain about it. They want to know that you know that you don't know. That you will ask questions and be humble.

 Be safe, be teachable, be likable. No one needs you to be the hot shot hero who already knows it all.
