I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Sentara Health (Virginia Beach, VA) in Mar 2023
Interview
Excellent. Thorough. Included a tour of the unit and shadowing which was very impressive for an interview. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly and excited about my interview. I have never had an interview where i got to shadow so this was an awesome experience for me
Took weeks to finally get an interview with a bunch and back a fourth with recruiter. Kept emailing me and then not responding on the days I said I was available.
Very easy straight forward, they want to know if you are committed to working a schedule and your prior experience and units worked. When they are ready to hire, they are ready to hire turnover rate for nurses is high, so getting a job is very easy
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a difficult time with a patient, I’ll call you over came it.
This process consisted of two interviews. The first was completed with the manager of the unit, which was then quickly followed by a peer-led interview that was a bit more informal.
