Some research up front can really help to educate you about what nursing school is like, and what the profession of nursing entails. Of course, you can use the internet to do this type of research, but it’s a good idea to also talk to people who have experienced nursing school and are working in the field. Reach out to our faculty and staff, our nursing students, or a working nurse in your area.  \nAlso, look into nurse shadowing and other volunteer experiences at a local hospital or other medical facility. These things will help you get a better feel for everything nursing and nursing school entails.  \n• Talk to nurses and nursing students.  \n• Do internet research. Most nursing schools have vision and mission statements. See if they fit with what you want out of a school and your vision for nursing.  \nAnother reason for doing your research up front is so that you have background information for interview responses. For example, you don’t want the only reasons that you’re interested in OHSU to be because we’re the only program that’s close to home and awards Bachelor’s degrees.  \nAgain, the interviewer wants to know more than that. If you research ahead of time, you’ll be able to explain additional reasons why nursing and OHSU are a great fit for you and vice versa.  \nResearch Interview Questions and Prepare Responses  \nYou don’t have a way of knowing ahead of time what questions you’ll be asked in your admission interview, but it is helpful to research interview questions to prepare you for the type of questions you’ll be asked.  \nInterview questions tend to be chosen to elicit an in-depth response from the interviewee so that the interviewer can get insight into the type of person the interviewee is, and whether they’re a good match for the program. One good idea is to google ‘interview questions’ or even ‘nursing school admission interview questions’ and use the results to come up with a list of practice questions.  \nPracticing responding to questions will help you feel more comfortable when you arrive at the interview. Creating an environment similar to an interview environment in which to practice questions will prepare you well. Set up a table  \nwith chairs and see if a friend or family member can help you by being the interviewer and asking you the questions. If you can’t find anyone to help you, you should still practice responding to questions out loud. Wear what you would wear to an interview so that you feel more comfortable in it when the day to interview arrives.  \nDo’s and Don’ts In-Person Interviews  \n• Do be sure you eat the day of the interview.  \n• Be punctual! This is very important.  \n• Plan your travel route and travel time, and plan for parking so you do arrive on time and unflustered.  \n• Do have a breath mint before your interview starts  \n• For women, if you’re wearing stockings, do bring an extra pair in case you get a run on your way to the interview.  \n*Make your own list of practice questions.  \n• Do not bring your cell phone or other electronics into the interview room.  \n• Do not bring gum or candy into the interview room.  \n• Do not bring soda or coffee into the interview room.  \nDo’s and Don’ts Webex Interviews  \n• Download Webex ahead of time.  \n• Use headphones, it helps reduce feedback and background noise.  \n• Have a stable internet connection.  \n• Please be in a quiet room, free of distractions.  \n• Silence your phone.  \n• Do n","cbCaifBDaUuGUL4p","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifBDaUuGUL4p","pdf",316866,11,"English","# Pre-Interview Preparation\n## Appearance\n## Non-Verbal Communication\n## Answering Questions\n## Preparing for Interview Video (Link)\n## Research Interview Questions and Prepare Responses\n## Do’s and Don’ts In-Person Interviews\n## Do’s and Don’ts Webex Interviews","[{\"question\":\"Why is pre-interview research important for an OHSU nursing admission interview?\",\"answer\":\"Research helps you confirm that you truly want to be a nurse and that OHSU’s nursing program fits your reasons for applying.
