Short Interview

Hello!

I'm currently a practicing RN working on completing my bachelors degree. I'm working on an assignment geared towards preparing for grad school. I'm wondering if there are any advanced practice nurses willing to answer some simple interview questions!

Thank you!

Here are the questions

Interviewee Data:

  • Position
  • Agency
  • Type of graduate degree
  • Institution the interviewee attended.
  • Date of graduation

Ask the following questions:

  • What are the advantages of a graduate degree?
  • Any suggestions about the application process?
  • Did you have a personal interview during your graduate application process?
  • If so, any thoughts or suggestions?
  • What words of wisdom do you have for someone who wants to pursue a graduate degree?
  • Reflecting back on your graduate experience, what would you have done differently?
  • In your opinion, what is the key to success in graduate school?
  • What did your path to graduate school look like? Did you work as an RN prior to pursuing your degree?
