- Learn how to prepare for your ICU interview with these helpful tips. I'll give you 20 questions to ask your interviewer but you must NOT say this!
#ICU #INTERVIEW #QUESTIONS
I interviewed at the ICU for clinical tech (pre-cna before starting cna school). Your tips gave me some ideas of what the DoN might ask me for my job, such as management of difficult patients or situations. I also watched cna skills videos so when I shadowed, I was able to help the actual CNA with a patient. Anyway, I got the job! Thank you so much for your generous and excellent advice!
I have my interview tomorrow for ICU and this helped so much!! 💪🏽 thank you girl!
i have mine tomorrow, God bless with your interview
Hey, if you don't mind me asking, what kind of questions did they ask?
Did you get the job?
I did got the job 💪🏽🤓 they asked me very simple question be honest and tell them you wanna learn. I can send a list of the questions I remember 💯
@@danieldelgado5735 yes, please.
Ok saving this video to really know the ins and outs of those medications for when I apply to ICU nurse residency programs after I graduate. Thanks for the tips!!!
Glad you found the info helpful 😊
Can you provide advice for an RN returning to the bedside after 3 years off? I have two years of Med Surg from 2015 to 2017 and 4 months in PCU. I worked a temp job in PCU during the pandemic. I really don't want to get stuck in M/S. I do have gaps in employment but I took time off for school and family things. Anyway, my long-term goal is AGAC-NP. What can I do to get back on track so I can succeed in my career goals?
All of your videos are answering every questions I had! Thank you, definitely subbing! Good luck on your CRNA journey
I'm glad you're finding the info helpful! Thank you for subbing/watching. If you have questions I haven't covered yet, let me know. I plan to do a Q&A video soon.
Thank you! This helped me in my interview with a trauma 1 centers neuro icu. I got it!
Thank you! Prepping for 2 interviews this week! 🤞🏾
What about if you have only been an icu nurse at a level 4 and now interview at a level 1 hospital. Will they be considerate that there are things you don't know?
You mention clinical scenarios, is there a website or book you recommend that can give lists of scenarios with answers and rationals?
I know this video is old but I just received my first RN offer in the CVICU. They asked me the blood flow through the heart and 1 question about cardiogenic shock. I didn’t mention CRNA though😂😂 but they did ask me my 5 year goal. Thank you so much.
Please was your interview in UK
Do you recommend new grad nurses starting in the ICU? I really don’t want to do med-surg lol
It really depends on you and the unit. I don't believe in working your way up (if you can handle the learning curve and the stress). I think the unit also needs to be supportive of new grads. They have to have preceptors that are patient and actually want to teach a new nurse. As an ICU nurse, you'll float to lower acuity floors and other than time management (juggling multiple patients), you wouldn't be missing anything IMO.
please do a video on how to get into the icu from being a new grad nurse...ill be graduating in December 2022 and would love to go into the icu right away. thank you! also do you think its a good idea to look into icu residency programs?
Will do! ICU residency programs as in for new grads? Absolutely. You need a unit that actually wants to teach new nurses and has made a special attempt to understand how to without scaring you off.
Have an Interview with Mayo Clinic Rochester next week in the ICU. This video was amazing thank you so much. Will definitely circle back around if a job offer comes knocking on my door :)
Please! I'd love to know any differences, surprising questions, etc. Good luck!
@@NurseKaylana Update: I was offered a position in the CVICU at Mayo and I accepted!!! The questions were definitely behavioral based questions. They also provided scenarios and asked me to prioritize the patients. I literally asked them EVERY question that you noted to ask the interviewer lol. She kept saying 'great questions wow!' Thank you again for this great video!! It helped me prepare sooooo muchhh.
@@laurenashleywilborn550 I love it. Congratulations and thank you for the update 😁
This was so helpful! Thank you so much!
I am in my last semester of nursing school and I have an interview for ICU as a new grad in a little over a week. Thank you for this very informative and well done video!
That's exciting! Thank you for watching 😊
@@NurseKaylana Thank you! Update: I was offered an ICU new grad residency position. Thanks so much for the video advice!!
@@karinowens7750 congratulations! So happy to know that and thank you for the update!
I am applying to nursing school and my plan from day one was to become a CRNA. What would you say is the best critical care unit to work to better prepare you for CRNA school. I would want the sickest of the sickest patients.
If you want sickest of the sick, I would say CVICU. Not sure if you have a lot of options of hospitals in your area, but look into the cardiac services the hospital offers. I say this because I worked at a level 2 that did heart/lung transplants, ECMO, VADs, etc. while the level 1 across the street didn't. Both the biggest hospitals in my area. I plan to include this question in an upcoming Q&A video and will include other ICUs that are still beneficial because you can still get some crazy sick patients in other ICUs.
@@NurseKaylana Thank you! I would keep that in mind.
Could you please do a video on what ICUs look best when applying to CRNA school?
I will look into it! Stay tuned ☺️
CVICU
i am a 4yr Med Surg nurse, I have my ICU interview this Friday. What do you mean "triple"?
I’m currently applying to various ICUs in my area. Bc my first program is not working out. 😞Thank you for this video.
Your first ICU internship? I'm sorry it's not working out and I hope these help you prepare for your interviews. I'm genuinely interested in hearing what they're asking these days if you want to come back and let me know. Good luck!
Did your second attempt work out? I went straight to ICU residency straight out of school and I had a horrible experience and a terrible preceptor so I've been in Dialysis the last 7 seven years. Now seven years later I'm going to give it another shot. Hopefully this time it's a better experience.
its the HIPPAish for me 😂😂😂
Crazy how the hate on us future CRNAs 😢
Delusion is real
Hi, Thanks for video, can you please answer my question. What is the difference between CRNA and anesthesia NP? Thank U
I am heading into4th Semester of Nursing School. I am Not sure what I want thank You for being awesome can you teach Critic al Thinking? fourth semester is critical care at
My university
if metoprolol not only affects bp/hr. what else would you use it for?
I’m a new nurse can you make a video on common patients and meds for ICU I’m interviewing in a few days and really need help please
This video was so helpful! I have an interview tomorrow. I took so many notes lol.
I'm glad you found it helpful! Good luck on your interview 😊
I got the job! I definitely got asked where do I see myself in 4-5 years lol. This video helped me answer correctly. Thanks again!
@@ambertucker8396 congratulations! Thank you for the update 😊
Love the video, have interview coming soon for SICU. Do you think that is a good start? I'm a new nurse. I have a question. Will it be safe to have questions written down for the interview process or is that too much?
You are so pretty! Thank you for this video.
Hi just about to embark into nursing school. I like watching these videos. I want to go into ICU after graduation, but it seems like a lot I would have to know from the jump. Should I go to another unit first and gain some experience?
Great video!
Thank you!
Absolutely fabulous video. Thank you 😊.
The questions at the end were good
I just got the invitation to interview today in CICU as a resident so I already went ahead and did some digging. Thanks for this informative video!
This was goooooood!!!!!!
Thank yoouuu ❤️
This video was amazing
Thank you
Thanks for all your videos, hopefully one day I'll be In your shoes good luck in school u got this!
My pleasure! Thank you for watching! Good luck in your journey to CRNA school ☺️
Did not find this video helpful, you rambled on about your experience and not really questions samples with how you would answer the questions.
Learning different experiences offers general knowledge on what to expect in various case scenarios. This will definitely helpful in an interview/discussion as well as for a new nurse seeking to work on the floor & how to navigate working towards to their future goals❤
You're looking for someone to guide you on exactly what they say. That's not what interviewing is about!
I disagree, very helpful in a great format
Could you make a video the focuses on general nursing questions they might ask us along with general ICU questions?
Thank you for already going over things we need to be familiar with for an ICU interview.
I have my first ICU interview tomorrow and I'm nervous. Thank you for this video.
You've got this! 😊
This has been the most helpful video I’ve ever seen about nurse interviews and for the icu speciality!! Thank you so so much! I sent off some apps so now I’m just hoping for a call back to schedule an interview ..fingers crossed!
I'm glad it helped! I think your chances are especially good right now since ICUs are starting to drown because of this recent surge. Good luck on your interview :)
I also took off my entire chemistry previous degree from my resume to hide my intention for CRNA haha
@@Hannah-xg2xq Having a chemistry background is impressive and it gives the impression you will be able to understand the pharmacology of the drugs. I wouldn't take it off but - of course - don't mention CRNA :)
@hannah I can't find the specific comment about getting the interview but I'm so happy for you. Let me know your experience during the interview. Good luck and congratulations!
@@NurseKaylana oh sorry!! I must have accidentally deleted it! I spent all day studying medicines, icu gtt’s and brushing up on cardiac surgery! Cannot wait. Thank you for all your advice your video is honestly the best one on YT for interview advise!!
