I have my 1st interview w/ a local hospital for tuition assistance in return for a work committment. (I start my program in May.) Since I am essentially interviewing for a job as well, any tips on what questions I should ask?
Additionally, any suggestions on interview apparel? I have worked in the financial industry for years, so conservative has always been the rule - navy/black business suit, skirt not pants, matching pumps, briefcase - BLAH! I am hoping I can dress down a bit - ie, slacks/blouse/flat dress shoes. Pls let me know if you think this is acceptable!
Thx!!!

We are more casual in Texas probably, and I think slacks and flat shoes are fine as long as they project a professional attitude. Ask about nurse/pt ratios, opportunities for advancement (do they have clinical ladder in place, what about continuing education). Ask about schedules and floating. But be a good listener too and SMILE.
