Hi
you wouldbe better asking this in the nursing forum. Maybe a nice mod could move it.

I had an interview with townsville and they were verrrry nice and friendly asked questions about drug management how I had made a difference drug errors stuff like that. Though mine was for a new grad position so the questions would be easier.

For ramsey health I was asked scenerio questions which for some reason I aced but also answered in a more out of the box way the interview said but that could be due to my age.

Dont worry you will do fine. What branch is it?

Try doing an advanced search & narrowing it down to only the nurses forum as there are plenty of previous threads!
Had two interviews with QLD health myself. They were big on the scenario questions. They were also both quite friendly. Just be prepared for the possibilty of a slight time delay which can be quite unnerving.
Good luck

Hi! Been out since Nov last year, so not all that long really. We have some very good schools & some not so good schools up here in Cairns...much like the UK I guess!
Is your interview in Aus or UK? Where are you hoping to work?
I had a face to face interview in London when we very first started the visa process. It was for Adelaide & obviously we changed our destination in the end but the interview was very relaxed & friendly.
There are distinct advantages with face to face too. The lack of non-verbal feedback in a telephone interview is very hard.
You'll be fine, remember, they want you!
