Interview for ICU nursing in Trauma Centre at Sydney
Hi,
My wife received an email from agency confirming she has been short listed for telephone interview for ICU nurse postion by one of the trauma centres in Sydney and they have given three weeks time to provide the availability in the morning time.
She had no experience of telephone interview. In fact the current one is her third job in 17 years nursing career so only had 5-6 interviews face to face so far. She was prescreened by agency before forwarding her details to the hospital and that was about 45 minutes over the phone. That's the only experience she had over the phone.
Appreciate any advice or ideas how to deal with telephone interview and infor about typical questions icu nurse can expect in the interview.
Thanks,
Mansawant

that's great news for your wife!!! tell her to speak slowly & clearly - keep calm & try to sound confident even though she'll be a bit nervous to start with- after 17 years experience in her field they can't ask her much she won't know the answer to surely! Good luck

Re: Interview for ICU nursing in Trauma Centre at Sydney
Hi all,
Thanks for the advice adn help.
My wife have had interview yesterday and today we received email from Agency confirming she has been approved by NSW Health and received so many form to complete and also asked for police clearance.
However in the email the name of the hospital Royal North Shore Hospital is not mentioned anywhere. Is it right in Oz. Is NSW health borad applies for the sponsorship or the individual hospital. I know this is the case for private hospitals.
Appreciate more info about the sponsorship from the people who are already in Oz on the sponsorship.
