I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Kindred Hospitals (Maryville, TN) in Jun 2012
Interview
After already filling out a complete long online application and submitting a resume they have you wait while they retrieve a paper application for you to fill out also. When you have finished with that you have to wait again for the Director of Nursing to come get you for the actual interview and you will wait for at least another fifteen to twenty minutes. She takes you into her office and proceeds to ask questions printed on a piece of paper. Not too original.
I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Kindred Hospitals (Newark, OH)
Interview
Brief phone interview with out of state HR rep, in house interview with either DON. Be prepared for a lot of situational type questions, i.e. how would you handle a difficult resident or an upset family member? How do you handle stress? How would you react if you witnessed abuse? How would you react if you saw a nurse do something unethical with charting or documentation of medication? How would you help the resident heal holistically? What makes you uniquely suited for this position? Why should we choose you over the other applicants we interviewed today?
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Kindred Hospitals (Indianapolis, IN)
Interview
The interview process was fairly easy going; it depends on each individual facility, but the interview wasn't that bad. I will say that they were disorganized from the start, and I should have seen that as a warning or precursor of things to come. For the first stage of my interview, the person who was supposed to interview me took the day off. Then, during the second stage of my interview, the interviewer didn't show up until 1/2 hour after my scheduled interview time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Interview questions were not that bad at all; very easy. The interviewer asked the typical interview questions: How long have you been working in the healthcare industry, what are your future goals, how would you handle a difficult situation with a staff member?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Kindred Hospitals (Knoxville, TN) in Jul 2015
Interview
Contacted via offsite onboarding Recruiter who set up my interview at the facility. Interview went well. Offered a position at end of process and accepted. Drug screen on site and background check.
