Job Interview Questions: I have a job interview? i need some advice?

I have a job interview at a nursing home as a CNA, it is my first job. does anyone know what kind of questions they will ask or what they might expect. i am very nervous. someone please help.

Preparation is the Best Job Interview Tip



Recommended Answer:
The fact that the Nursing Home has selected you for an Interview is proof that they consider you a good prospect for employment.
Find out as much as you can about the Nursing Home
The name the Matron
The category of patient they have.
What a Nursing Assistants duties might be
How many patients they have
and whether any of them have any mobility issues

If they ask you to define your "role" (as you see it) then you are:

"Maintaining an environment conducive to professional care, welfare and quality of life for the patients."

If they ask you where you see yourself in say 5 years time

"By then I hope to have some qualifications and perhaps graduate to a more professional role within the Nursing Home.

The Interviewer might say -
Whilst carrying out your normal duties you observe that one of the patients is acting a little odd and completely out of character - What would you do?

"I would report the incident to my Supervisor and also make a brief written report which I would submit to either the Matron or my Supervisor depending on being sure that I am following the Rules on Reporting Procedures".

Be professional and smartly dressed and be sure to provide open rather than closed answers, in other words try not to answer a question with a "Yes or a "no" try to give a little information.
I am sure you will do fine.
Good luck on the day.

Job Interviews - Six Blunders to Avoid


  • You will be asked about your training and experience. You may be asked some "what would you do if....?" questions. Just take your time, take a deep breath, and then answer each question one at a time. Remember, the interviewer wants to like you. He/ She wants to hire you because they were smart enough to ask you in for an interview. The interviewer wants to be proven right for asking you to come for the interview by offering you the job.

  • Be professional, this includes dressing appropriately and speaking eloquently. Be calm, if you're nervous, it will show through and in a field like Nursing - there's no room for nerves (unless you count the neurological system, LOL). Be confident, if you're confident in yourself, your air of confidence will show through, and you'll impress the interviewer with your cool aura. Above all else, as cheesy as it sounds, be yourself. Good luck!

  • just show some cleavage
