This week has been a fun one. I haven't interviewed someone, or been interviewed for a while so it was fun thinking back to interviews I have been involved in and what questions were being asked. I am not sad to say that I am happy those parts of my life are past, and I don't have any immediate plans to participate in more. The interview process can be so stressful.
One of the interviews that I hope to one day participate in is Life Flight. This is one of my dreams, to one day be a Life Flight nurse. But I will have to say that the interview process for this makes me sick to my stomach. Candidates are interviewed by their peers in a setting where you are the only candidate being interviewed by all the members of the Life Flight team that are available. Sometimes, if attendance is good, a candidate can be interviewed by 10-15 people. These are people I work with on a regular basis, who I have so much respect for. But the thought of being interviewed by them freaks me out! Maybe one day I'll have the courage to put myself in the running!
Now the thought of being the interviewer sounds kind of fun. That may sound mean, but I think it would be nice to be on the opposite side for once. I'm sure it's not as fun as it sounds, but a girl can dream, right??!?!? In all seriousness, I'm sure at times it can be so difficult to choose who to hire. In some cases there may be multiple qualified individuals, but in situations that are the opposite it would be so difficult to try and figure out who to hire when none of the candidates seem to be the perfect fit.
