RN Pre-Employment Tests =(

Published

Hello fellow nurses, I am a new grad, passed NCLEX and now I'm off to start and well find my first job. I have an interview with a Hopital that requires pre-employment testing before the interview. So i did the test and they sid my score is 1 what that mean? What score should be? Any suggestions how i should answer next time?

Why don't you ask the people who gave you the test?

Congratulations on passing the NCLEX!

I suspect from your post that English is your second language. It's very helpful to be multi-lingual and it can be a strong "plus" for employment, but I highly recommend that you ask someone to proof any resumes or online applications that you submit during your job search. Typos/errors in and of themselves can remove you from consideration for a position...

Ask them again.

We can't tell you what "1" means because we a. have no idea what test you had to take, and b. have no idea what their scoring rubric is. A "1" could be the best score...or not.

Make sure that you are specific when you ask, such as "I want to know about my test results: I saw that I got a "1" on the test. What exactly does this score mean?"

And if "1" is not a good score, also ask "Where were my weaknesses? What do you recommend I do in order to perform better on the test the next time I take it?"
