I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Stanford Health Care (Palo Alto, CA) in Sep 2014
Interview
HR can take a very long time. Resumes are screened through HR and given to manager who shares with unit educator, CNS, and assistant managers. After interview (generally phone) with assistant manager, there is a panel interview with floor nurses and charge nurses, as well as unit educator/management
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Most difficult family/patient situation I had encountered and how I dealt with it
I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Stanford Health Care (Palo Alto, CA) in Jun 2023
Interview
the process had a lot of steps to it, there were three different interviews but the overall process didn't take long, fast response time post-interview, was very organized, and was very competitive
I applied online. I interviewed at Stanford Health Care in Sep 2021
Interview
Applied online, waited for about a week and got a call for a quick 15 min phone screen with the assistant nurse manager. Scheduled an in-person interview. Went in and had a panel interview with 3 nurses, all of whom were assistant managers. I was asked mostly behavioral questions, some clinical scenarios, and to interpret tele strips. Interview lasted about 30-40 mins. Got an email the same day to request for references. Was offered the position by HR (who texted me an offer, weird, I know) at the end of the day on a Friday. Accepted the offer and happy to be part of the team :)
Only issue was with HR, apparently she’s new but made a mistake in offering me a sign-on bonus when my dept is not eligible, sending me on-boarding docs last minute (the day they’re actually due), and having me send her my resume and getting an auto-reply that she’s on PTO -_-
Other than that, interview process with staff is great, they are responsive and quick to answer phone calls/emails
I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Stanford Health Care in Jul 2016
Interview
Committee based interview with the standard questions. Looking for nurses with experience. BSN is a must. Standard HR screening and background check. Nothing surprising in the least.
