Nursing Job Interview Questions + Answers │Med Surg edition

These are some of the questions that I remember from my own nursing job experiences as a general medicine nurse and how I answered them. I have divided the questions into personal and medical questions - timecodes down below. One question that I forgot to mention is "Where do you see yourself in 5 years". I find this question is to see if you would be a long term employee in the organization. Hospitals/organizations don't want to train new employees only for them to leave a short time after. They want to know that you are committed to staying at the organization long term. I am probably forgetting other questions but these are the ones that I remember and have stuck with me throughout the years. If you think of any other questions let me know in the comment section. Hope this helps! 😊

LET'S BE FRIENDS ON

WHO AM I
I'm Tania, a nurse practitioner student living and going to school in Ontario Canada. I've been a registered nurse for 7 years. I made this channel because I found that there was a lack of content relating to Canadian NP students on YouTube so I decided to create this channel not only to document my journey through school but also to provide some helpful information to aspiring NP students 😊

You are so articulate and well-spoken. I aspire to be a nurse like you. Thank you for this video! :)

[jamiemauser]

Always airway and breathing before chest pain! ABCs! As soon as we hear respiratory distress, we need to intervene immediately!
The chest pain can have an ekg delegated to a tech

[iraroshow]

I have been a nurse for 3 years but after listening to you I felt I just left nursing school. Thanks for this video. I love it

[bonifacemwakiomrashui]

I admire the way you've articulated most areas in order of priority...

[PinkYellowGreen]

I love the conversation on priorities! Chest pain is an emergency until you figure out the cause.

I'm not even a nursing student but this video you created was absolutely amazing. I especially liked your suggestion to personally bring in your resume. For the most part all resumes look the same especially if they're emailed or mailed in they all appear to be the same . When you take the time to drop it off in person not only will that person remember your face but it's also a good way to make a good first impression. Awesome video 🤙🤙
