I'm sorry ? Honestly just wish they would send mine as well before the week ends so I can have closure. Did your status in the portal change?

Yes! It changed to "Future Potential" 

I was wondering if anyone can share the difference between the first interview versus the second interview questions? TIA! Congrats to those who got offers. To those that didn't, know you tried your best and how you beat out a lot of others to get to first round. Our time will come!

Ya ofc! So I feel like round one questions were very traditional (you can find sample ones online or on YouTube): conflict w coworker, time you cared for a pt of a different cultural background , time you implemented EBP etc.

Round 2 questions were challenging in my opinion. They were very tricky in the sense like they wanted to see your critical thinking in challenging situations,  moments that have changed your nursing practice, family type questions where someone wasn't happy with their care etc. I felt like they were trying to just paint a big picture on who we are / the critical thinking. To me They were deep questions ?

Round two they asked about your career goals and why that specialty (I don't think this initial one is timed but I really took the time to talk about why I would love to work in the specialty) make sure it's not generic like : I love babies etc. I would def talk about if you've personally been a pediatric pt, specific pts and families you have worked w in past that was like your big why to entering your specialty. You set the tone with who you are with the Initial questions they ask (before they start timing) make it count! Hope this helps!  you got this ?

Has anyone made a facegroup group so we can connect?

I'm not sure! There's no number on their website, only "Spring 2024 cohort" 

I was just posting to ask if there was a facebook page! Thanks for making it!!

Hi guys! I came across this thread during interviews but hadn't commented. I'm part of the cohort but wanted to say hi here before joining the facebook group ?
