I was asked various questions about how my skills will transfer to case management. I am a case manager and aware of the role! Why do you want to be a case manager?. Asked the same question several times by different case managers. Felt like the Twilight Zone!

I didn't think any of the questions were too difficult or unexpected. I guess the most challenging ones for me were questions about the type of people I work best with, the type of environment I work best in.. that type of thing. I am aware of my truthful answers to the questions, and went with those, but I was nervous of the "what if" my answer doesn't match what the culture is like.
