School Nurse Interview this week! Any advice?

[Lael]

I'm a fairly new RN (ADN) with about a year of doing PRN and full-time nursing in LTC and mental health. I've also had about 9 years prior exp in the Air Force as an EMTB working in ambulance services/urgent care, medsurg, family practice, immunizations and OBGYN. Recently I moved with my husband to Alaska and now I am seeking employment as a full-time nurse. Due to my husbands frequent deployments and TDYs (EOD) and having a 3y/o daughter plus not knowing anyone here to help, I am limited as to what jobs I can apply for. Wish they had some kind of 24hr daycare plan at hospitals for nurses and other staff!

Anyway, I applied at several places, to include being a high school nurse. The next day I recieved a call from the school district nursing administrator and was asked if I could come in for an interview this week. When I applied I felt really excited and confident. Now after reading alot of the post threads about others' experiences as school nurses I feel nervous as heck and wonder if I can really handle it or not?! Plus I have VERY little exp with pediatrics as an EMT and none as a nurse. So I'm not sure how I would sell myself. Is my experience even adequate enough to handle this job? I don't even have a clue as to what to say during this interview because of my lack of exp with kiddos. lol Freakin out here! =P

Just a random thought. At the interview don't chew gum, and if you do, be sure you've brought enough for everybody.
