Panel interview with multiple team members. Thorough and thoughtful questions. Set clear expectations of what they were looking for. Very professional when setting up interview and good communication from recruiter afterwards.

I used the hospital's website to apply for a staff nurse position at the main hospital and got a call from the hiring manager the same day. She explained what the position was, what she was looking for in candidates, and asked me about myself, and then invited me in for an interview that week. I was very pleased that I did not have to go through a recruiter or someone in HR first, as many hospitals have job candidates do. It showed that the manager had respect for me as both a professional and a human being, which is contrary how many other organizations treat prospective employees with pointless phone interviews and personality tests. I met the manager in the lobby for my interview and she walked me to her office, where I met with another manager and a nurse educator. The interview felt very friendly and it had an informal tone. I immediately liked the manager's warm demeanor. There were some typical back and forth, run of the mill "Describe a situation where you had to ____" type questions mixed in with idle chit chat here and there. After about 45 minutes of that, I was asked if I would like to shadow another nurse for a couple hours the next day, which I did. The manager met me again and showed enthusiasm for me working there. I was contacted the next day with the offer.
