May 2010 New Grad has a Psych interview next Wednesday

Specialties Psychiatric

Published

I graduated in May of 2010. I passed the NCLEX in 2011. I have been fascinated with this field ever since my first semester of nursing school. This is my dream specialty. I have been working on-call at an adult day care facility. I would like some last minute pointers, besides the main interview type questions. What type of psych questions can I expect? Also, should I go over any medications etc? Thanks

Just found your message. How did the interview go? I know mine was about things like, "Where would you look for contraband in the pt's belongings?" and "How well do you deal with conflict/angry customers?"

The manager said that she will make a decision by April. I have an interview for an oncology unit tomorrow. I really want to work in psych, but I might have to start out in another area for now.
