I applied in-person. I interviewed at CHRISTUS Health (Paris, TX) in Sep 2010
Interview
It takes about a month to get an application completed before you can go to work. It seems they have a lot of back log, questions asked are to general and mostly not specific to the job you are applying for, peer interviews are a waste of time, in a small town, everyone knows everyone. It is too clannish.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do if you had a difficult patient or family member. No other examples to go by.
I think it was a very straightforward interview. I Answered questions about my background and I asked them questions about the department. It was low stress and personable. The people were very down to earth.
I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at CHRISTUS Health (San Francisco, TX) in Dec 2024

Interviewed on 3 units, panel interview was conducted with questions about my experience and personality. I was also given a rundown on how things worked on the unit, what the unit saw on a daily basis, and what the unit was looking for in a nurse.
