Nursing Job Interview Questions + Answers │Med Surg edition
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 28 июл 2024
- 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! 😊

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 RUclips 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 😊
Get to know me • Get to know me 😀 Nurse...

ABC breathing before chest pain
Say Airway then breathing
You are so articulate and well-spoken. I aspire to be a nurse like you. Thank you for this video! :)
Thank you for your kind words☺️. I'm sure you will be an awesome nurse🩺
@@npstudentchronicles3652 Thank you for saying that, and thank you so much for your video :) I actually got a similar question regarding the chest pain scenario, and I was glad that I came across your example in your video and managed to answer it correctly! :)
@@aneshkasingam2622 wooo!! That's awesome!! So glad I could help. Hope you get the job😊
I love to see Canadian nurses on youtube. One of the reasons why I started my RUclips channel
I love the conversation on priorities! Chest pain is an emergency until you figure out the cause.
Absolutely 🙌🏻
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
Aww no problem. I hope it brought back good nursing school memories, even the sleepless nights 🥹📖
I admire the way you've articulated most areas in order of priority...
Aww thats very kind of you. Thank you 😊
Thank you for perfect and precise information.
I can fall asleep with your voice. Its so calming.lol Thank you for the tips
Aww your so sweet 🥰. It's the first time someone has complimented my voice lol. I used to not like listening to myself for the longest time but finally got over it 😅. Thanks for watching 😊
My dear I enjoyed every minute… thank you so much… I already have 14 years of experience working as a nurse in another country, but I have a interview and look like my first interview… thank you so much for your help.
I'm so happy to hear this!! I'm glad my experience can help someone else. All the best in your interview! Let us know how it went. You will be great!! ☺
Thank you for the tips! I love your shirt!
Haha thank you 😊
Very informative thank you very much
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 🤙🤙
Aww thanks so much 😊. Never going to forget my manager's feedback when she told me why I stood out from everyone else. I try to submit my resume personally whenever I can now. Thanks for watching 😊👍🏻
Very helpful video. you provided clear examples. More power to your channel. Thank you.
Glad I helped in some way 😊
Thank you! This is super helpful! I’m a new grad and had an interview with a similar prioritization/delegation question but didn’t think about delegating 🤦🏻♀️ I will definitely touch on that for my future interviews!
Don't worry, it happened to me too early in my nursing career 😅. I thought I was expected to do "everything" but the reality is we can't. Nursing is working as a team and delegation is part of it. Hope you get the job 😊👍🏻
Awesome advice 👍
Thanks a lot for your video. It helps.
No problem! Glad it helped 😀
Informative. Thanks
Nice one I hope this step help me out tomorrow coming back to share my experience and positive feed back .

Wow, very articulate.thank you dear.
Aww thanks ☺️. Hope it was helpful
Very much.infact i have taken notes, that's how informative and helpful your info is to me.keep soaring higher gal.
Thank you for these tips! For question 3, I would first check if the patient's safety. If the patient was given the wrong medication via IV (RN administered 2x opioid-dose vs abx), what would you do?
Monitor the patient for any adverse effects as you call the physician then document it in an incidence book
Your interview questions and answers are really , you touched areas that come in most interviews. ❤
Thank you 😊. Glad I could help
Hi i am prepare interview ....your teaching is nice .. thanks for your video

This is helpful coz I recently got my RPN license and I am currently interviewing for jobs
Good luck. I hope it's helpful 🩺☺️
@@npstudentchronicles3652 thank you
How to divide your abodmen into regions or quadrants?
or no?
Thank you very much to shearing this , my mother will haves interviewing on Monday
Aww good luck to her! Hope she gets the job ☺
All of the question you mentioned were in my first interview.
Woo!! That's amazing!! Hope you got the job 🙂👍🏻
Yes dear
I really appreciated this video! I'm a new grad RN in the GTA and I'm very interested but terrified of working on a med-surg unit. I was wondering if you had any more information regarding what kind of chronic or acute conditions you see on med-surg what what skills/procedures are commonly seen on med surg units? I've only had placements in CCC, palliative, rehab or ltc :(
Haha don't be scared !! I'm still scared when I start a new job 😅. You see a little bit of everything on med-surg. You're background will help you a lot. It's more fast paced than palliative, rehab or LTC. A lot of pneumonia, diabetes/foot ulcers, failure to thrive and dementia/delirium with the elderly, alcohol withdrawal, some palliative/comfort pts etc. It's awesome for a new grad! You get to really improve your skills and get better at time management. You will do great. Don't be shy to ask questions. We all have to start somewhere 🙌🏻😊
@@npstudentchronicles3652 Thank you so much for your insight and encouragement!
You can also cover health care attendant interviews
Hi! Thank you for watching 🙂If I could make a video for a health care attendant I would but I don't know enough about the role to make a video. I have never been a health care attendant, so I don't want to pretend like I do lol. But I hope this video helped you in some way ☺
Hlo mam i have applied for master of nursing what is next step after master of nursing to become RN
This is helpful, i will be having an interview next week. Im glad i get to watch this. By the way, how many scenario questions they usually ask?
Hi! In my experience usually 2-3. Maybe in more specialized roles the questions can be more than 3...for example my diabetes educator interview was like 6-7 questions haha. I was sweating buckets afterwards 🤣
So can u pls teach me or give me some online lecture/learnings on how to divide the abdomen into different sections?
how to doo that?or no?
Thanks for these video! I so much appreciate you!
Also, Do you think these questions would be asked for a New RPN nurse for med-surge? or its mostly for RN's
I think it's applicable to both RPNs and RNs. The only other scenario I can think of is maybe "escalating to an RN" when a patient becomes unstable and knowing to recognize when a patient is becoming unstable. But not sure cuz I wasn't trained as an RPN but from this is what I've heard and seen from my RPN colleagues
How to divide your abdomen into regions or no?
Chest pain over difficulty breathing???
Hi Taniya, After completing a master of nursing program, what is the next step to becoming a nurse practitioner ?
Hi 😊The NP program is actually a combination of Master's in Nursing with a NP diploma so you take both Master's and NP courses , completed in 2 years as a full time student (or 3 years part time). Or some nurses who have previously done their Master's can apply for just the NP program and it will take them 1 year (full time) to complete it versus 2 years. Hope this answers you question 😊
Thank u.
Tania i need to hand in my abdomen examination/ assesmetn assignment by next month or i will be in trouble.
Hi, I actually have a question about how you got into the NP program.
For your NP program, is there clinical hours required before application? If yes does it matter if its in an acute setting or not?
Hi! I made a video explaining how I got into the program. Hope you find it helpful ☺️

What was your full nursing journey to practitioner, did you do your masters first
Hi! Thanks for watching 😊. In the video I linked below 👇🏻 I explain my nursing journey. I didn't do my Masters first (although you could if you wanted to). I went straight into the program. Hope this helps! ruclips.net/video/z3l3HfmJfcE/видео.html&si=EnSIkaIECMiOmarE
Hi Tania, thank you for your video its really helpful. Am having an interview in few days in medicine am done with the behavioral interview part, now the next one is clinical based can you suggest what I can expect in clinical based interview in medicine unit?
Hi thanks for watching 😊. The examples that I provided in the video are from my interviews in medicine. Basic ABC questions, isolation questions (especially now with COVID), when to recognize red flags for key conditions like MI, stroke, hypoglycemia. If you ever don't know a question, it's okay. Just be honest (especially if you're a new nurse) but always say you will ask someone or look up information. Always remember patient safety first. Knowing your limitations is important to ensure patient safety. Hope this helps and good luck in your interview 😊
Hiii, I'm at the same stage ...can you share what they asked in the interview?
Thank u
No problem ☺
Mam I'm nurse staff from India
Hai dear could you make sone questions about oncology department interview
Hi! I don't work in an oncology department so I wouldn't know any of the questions that would be asked. This video is based on my experience in a medical/surgical unit. Some of the questions are general questions that could appear on any unit. Nursing is a team based job so it's always good to mention that you are good team player 😊
Tania how to divide your abdomen into different sections? or no?
How was your experience at the Middle East as a nurse ?
It was really good! I experienced a different way to nurse but at the same time it somewhat similar. Too long to type out 😅but it was a good overall a good experience. I don't regret it 🙂
Actually breathing first.. A B C
Kindly share another example of a situation you went beyond and above. I like you video very calm and composed
Thank you 😊❤️
