Starting to sweat every time you think of your CRNA school interview? Preparing well in advance is your best move, and we’ve got you covered! Every school has a different interview style, for certain. However, there are a few common types of questions you can expect during your CRNA school interview. 

In today’s episode, we’re diving into all you need to know in advance, including:

  • The vital importance of networking, attending open houses, and studying before you are even invited to interview
  • Determining your level of emotional intelligence, and being able to play up your strengths for personal questions (Learn more about yours here! www.16personalities.com)
  • The best strategies for answering seemingly random rapid-fire questions
  • How to thoroughly prepare for pharmacological and clinical-based questions (and freshening up on that head math!)
  • Understanding CCRN or essay-style questions, and how to stay on your toes

 Happy interviewing, and you’ve GOT THIS, future CRNA!
