They were the basic behavioral questions and depending on your floor you could be asked a case study. I got asked a case study for the geriatric unit. For others I heard it was just one question " tell me about yourself?" 

 

 

Specializes in New Grad RN.

I had mostly behavioral questions and 2 clinical questions! For behavioral they asked: tell me about yourself?, why do you want to work at UCLA?, specific unit questions like: why do you want to work in the ICU?, tell me a time where you made a good impact on a patient, tell me a time where you had a difficult patient and how did you deal with it, did you ever have a disagreement with a coworker and how did you resolve it? 
 

For the clinical questions they gave me a prioritization question, and nursing interventions that I would do for that scenario. 

Has anyone heard from peds oncology or PICU?

I got an email that my  application was forwarded to the hiring manager, crossing my fingers to be contacted for an interview ☺️!!

I just got an email yesterday saying it was forwarded to the hiring manager 

Did your emails specify which unit(s) it was sent to? Mine just said hiring manager

MICU & MedSurg/Tele

I applied the last day and saw that mine was referred to the hiring manager by the end of the week, and received an email stating the same yesterday. But I just checked my profile and it says "In Review" now. Did anyone else's change to "In Review?”
