9,458 rn manager interview questions shared by candidates

Most of the questions they asked me during my interview were related to my volunteer experience at the hospital, my experience on the oncology floor I did my practicum on, and specific details that I had on my resume. The questions weren't difficult, they mainly just want to get to know you. Even if you do get a tough question, keep your cool, its okay to take a minute to process it and come up with an eloquent answer instead of answering right away with word vomit. Make sure to show them your smile, make sure your answers are personal and unique - work in personal experiences and tell a story with your answer instead of just giving a generic response. For example, if they ask "why pedatrics", instead of saying "I love kids", tell them a story of a time when you really enjoyed teaching/spending time with a child, make it personable. They WILL remember stories, and you want to stand out from the crowd. I cannot stress this enough, NO GENERIC ANSWERS. Prepare beforehand, look up nursing interview questions but don't just prepare for those. Think out of the box. Because this interview was for a new grad position, they know that you don't have much floor experience so they're not going to ask you random, out of the blue questions that a more seasoned nurse will be asked, but do prepare for situational questions such as "what would you do if xyz happened, how would you react, what would be your next step?". Lastly, do your research about the company and work in their mission and vision into your answers! They want to know that you'll fit in well with the culture they are cultivating on campus. I had a friend who was asked why she wanted to work at NCH and she gave the most generic answer instead of working in how different the hospital is from other hospitals, and the distinct services they have to offer to their patients and their families. Do your homework!
