The overall interview process went well. The recruiter was very nice and answered any question I had; The floor mangers were also very nice. The process took a little while though due to COVID.

This experience consisted of shadowing for 3 hours and an interview afterward. I shadowed on a general medicine floor and followed a nurse. I'm glad I did this because I realized within 30 minutes I did not want to work there. My nurse was responsible for 5-6 patients (some were 100% dependent for ADLs) with no techs on the floor. The supply room was missing essential items the nurses needed and multiple nurses stated this was the norm. Also, some were discussing the need to see an eye doctor and the soonest appointment being 4 months away with employee health (benefits are an important consideration for a position). After shadowing, the interview is conducted panel style. They read questions off of a sheet, none of which seemed personal. The interviewers did not say anything about themselves (schools, experience, etc) until after the interview questions had been answered. Usually this is done as an introduction to make the interviewee feel comfortable. I did clinicals at this hospital and did not have this negative experience, so maybe it was department specific. To be transparent, I did not get the job offer but after that experience I would not have taken the position anyway.
