Thank you! It was mostly EI/personality questions. - Discuss your most difficult patient

- CRNA politics and current issues, stages of anesthesia.

- Role of CRNA

- Discuss a time you went above and beyond for a critical patient

- Discuss a time where you had to use leadership skills to take control when other teammates were making a mistake or doing something wrong. 
 

Good luck☺️

Curious, has anyone else who applied for the November deadline heard back for an interview yet? I submitted my application right at nov 15th so I'm just curious as to how long it took to hear back from those that received interviews already

Got an interview invite 2 weeks after app finalization. Mine was finalized two days before deadline.

I didn't hear back yet. I had emailed and they said that my app was marked as completed on Nov 18th and they're still reviewing apps so I would get an update through email. So then I realized that maybe since it finalized after the deadline they might have grouped me with the regular Feb deadline and is not as priority anymore? IDK I'm still trying to give some benefit of doubt ?
