I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Sentara Health (Williamsburg, VA) in May 2024
Interview
The recruiting staff are great and got me in very quickly for an interview with the hiring manager. The interview went great! The staff that showed me around before the interview were so informative and seemed very content. The vibe on the unit was peaceful (as a hospital should be). The hiring manager was very thorough yet not rushed. They expressed their interest to hire me before the interview was over! Great experience!
Took weeks to finally get an interview with a bunch and back a fourth with recruiter. Kept emailing me and then not responding on the days I said I was available.
Very easy straight forward, they want to know if you are committed to working a schedule and your prior experience and units worked. When they are ready to hire, they are ready to hire turnover rate for nurses is high, so getting a job is very easy

This process consisted of two interviews. The first was completed with the manager of the unit, which was then quickly followed by a peer-led interview that was a bit more informal.
