What to expect on my 1st nursing job interview

Nurses LPN/LVN

Published

Any suggestions on what to expect on my first nursing job interview? I am currently looking at LTC for a start. Will there be written exams--sure won't be as tricky as the nclex, as I would imagine.

Anyone knows how the weekend only shift works?

Please share any advice on do's and don'ts, as per job interview. What type of questions can I ask? What are the downside in accepting jobs with bonus offers? Thanks in advance for your input:)

How did your interviews in El Paso go? I too am applying at Del Sol, Las Palmas and Sierra Medical Center and the new Sierra Providence East. Do you know the starting pay for GN at these hospitals??

Depending on where you live the expectations may be different. Around where I live, if you have a pulse and a license, you're hired. I could go to ten LTC facilities tomorrow and get hired at all ten. I have over 1 year experience, but they would of hired me right out of school. Noone stays in LTC very long for some reason. I love my little old people, I just hate the high numbers of residents assigned to you and time restrictions put on you. I'm glad you want to work LTC, because the geriatric population need people who want to be there with them, not just for a paycheck. Yes, I realize we all need money, but compassion makes your work alot more enjoyable.

where are you located i need a job ASAP and can not find anyone who willing hire without experience. i am in Florida
