Nursing Interview Exams Questions and complete Solution
Denning [Date] [Course title] Nursing Interview Questions - Correct Answer: General Information - Correct Answer: Tell us about yourself - Correct Answer: I consider myself to be very enthusiastic, determined and caring.
I'm all about self-improvement and growth, always welcoming challenges and learning opportunities. I always strive to be a better version of myself in every aspect and this is evident in everything I do.
Why do you want to go into Nursing? - Correct Answer: I chose Nursing for a variety of reasons but one of the main ones is because I believe the profession coincides with my personality, putting my best characteristics to good use. I'm very compassionate and nurturing, and have always wanted to devote myself to serving the public. It's a diverse and universal profession, applicable to many settings of practice. It is also challenging, satisfying my desire to learn and grow. Additionally, it is a holistic yet scientific profession, devoted to taking care of the person, not the disease, with evidence-based practice.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? - Correct Answer: In five years, I see myself as proficient ICU nurse. Within these five years, I will also take the exam for the Critical Care RN (CCRN) certification, once
eligible. I am definitely interested in becoming an Advanced Practice nurse but my main focus is gaining the experience I need to be a competent clinician. (Which type of APN? Once I being working, I will learn
more about each type of APN, such as education or NP, and let my experience guide me from there.)
Personality - Correct Answer: How do you feel working in an ethically and religiously diverse environment? - Correct Answer: Simply put, I will feel great working in an ethically and religiously diverse environment. Given the fact that diversity in the US is rapidly increasing, cultural competence is a characteristics that all clinicians will need to possess in order to provide equal, high quality care. Therefore, working in a diverse setting or with diverse patient populations will increase the quality of care I provide, decrease discrepancies and, overall, make me a better nurse.
Are you a team player? Do you prefer to work alone or in teams? - Correct Answer: I am definitely a team player. I believe that the more minds, the better because each individual brings their own unique skillset and approach, maximizing outcome (and you learn more as well). Additionally, effective interdisciplinary collaboration has been shown to improve patient outcomes and benefit the institution as well. However, I am capable of working independently to complete tasks that don't require multiple people.
