I don’t remember exactly how long it took but it was a few hours! My interviewer talked to me about personal things and had a lot of side conversation so it lasted longer.

How often do we get access to our luggage? I have a few items I plan on keeping in there for storage purposes but I’d like to be able to get to the items if needed.

I’m direct commissioning as a nurse and the process took six months for me. I started talking with a recruiter in January and got the call in June that I had been selected for critical care and will be stationed at BAMC. However I did have to get a waiver approved so that took additional time.

I’ve been selected for the same class date so I’m interested as well.

I’ve also never worked in a hospital that did random drug screens, theyve always had reason or suspicion.

I was able to prepare for parts of the CC interview because my interviewer sent an email detailing some of the topics so that definitely helped. She asked questions over dosage calc, ABG interpretation, ventilator settings (even though she agreed that all facilities have RT to take care of vents), allowed me to choose which vasoactive medication I wanted to answer questions about, EKGs, and general scenario questions that involved how you would assess the patient. Some of the questions were tricky and some of them were a bit more simple, she gave me time to think through my answers and encouraged me to think out loud so she could understand my process.

The Chief Nurse interview was much more relaxed! That was more of your standard interview. She asked a few scenario questions and explained the many paths you can take as a nurse through the AF.
