Vanderbilt Nurse Residency Winter 2017

U.S.A. Tennessee

Hello! I have seen these in the past and figured this could be a place to talk about applying and the process of this program!

Congrats all! I was invited for Cardiology dept interview. Although it will be super expensive - I hope to be able to travel to Nashville for the interview. Skype is an option but I think it is a disadvantage - especially since I won't be able to see the unit.

I'll be interviewing for a SICU position. What are interviews like? Any advice? For those in ICU positions at Vandy, how do you like it?

Hey there! Congrats on getting an interview! The only advice I can really give is to study up on the behavioral interview style. uses this (as do most hospitals at this point,) and I think it takes some practice. Print off a list of common questions and familiarize yourself with the format. This interview style really isn't something you can tackle off the cuff; you have to have spent some quality time reflecting on the types of experiences you've had in school or clinical based work. Best of luck!!

Thanks for the advice! I'll definitely be spending some time preparing!

Any advice on a couple questions to ask the interviewers? Anything that would stand out to the folks?

Specializes in CRNA.

For anyone who has received an interview, what did your pre-interview things look like? I really want to apply to , but I'm scared my GPA will be a problem.

Ooh, good luck!

I had a really positive experience. The interview went by SO quickly and wasn't as scary as I thought it would be :) Definitely look over the PowerPoint they sent you.

They're still doing interviews? When I was invited for an interview they said they were only doing interviews on Oct 10 & 24 for the units.

Either way...Congrats and good luck!

What unit did you interview for? And yeah my interview dates were either Oct 31st or Nov 4th. Maybe it's just different for different units!
