Second interview, same manager

I have an interview tomorrow! I am very excited, it's only per diem but it would be a foot in the door. Anyways, I am interviewing with two nurse managers, one of which I have interviewed with before. I am so nervous because I have to come up with all new stories to the basic questions! Also, I hope she doesn't remember my suit because I don't have another to wear! Has anyone been in this situation before?

I am hoping it will be an advantage but who knows. I have interviewed for multiple positions in this specialty with always the same outcome, you need more experience. Uhhh, I'll work on that as soon as you hire me! In other words, I am trying not to get my hopes up!

In my experience during a second interview they tend not to ask the same questions and if they do and you think your previous answer is a good one, you can find creative ways to answer. Something like "as Ms Watts may recall I...." I personally do not see anything wrong with wearing the same suit. You can always wear a different shirt underneath or different piece of jewelry or shoes. Good luck!

Agree with Gabby, you do not need new scenario answers.

Have a feeling you've got this! The manager in the first interview feels the need to confirm her initial positive impression.

Take a little time in your responses. When answering... initial direct your eye contact to the questioner, then add the other manager during your response.

I am assuming this is for a pediatric position. Thinking any response should include how you will also focus on the needs of the parents?

Sending you much luck! Let us know how it went.

Thanks, I do want to clarify this is not a second interview in the traditional sense. I interviewed back in November for a part-time position. It will be the same manager though so I guess it kind of is a second interview. I'll keep you posted.

I am also in the running for a full time position, HR called to let me know my resume was going to be passed along to the manager but she was on vacation. I would prefer that position but I will take anything, especially since I haven't even heard back about it.
