I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Duke Health in Dec 2017
Interview
I applied at the end of October and received an email early December to set up an intro phone call. My intro phone call was with a recruiter who told me about the position and asked me a few behavioral questions, as well as questions about my resume/cover letter/experience. The phone call lasted 30 minutes and she said I would be hearing back soon if Duke wanted to move forward with an interview. A few days later I got an email saying the nurse manager wanted to do an interview. My interview lasted 30 minutes and was similar to my first phone call, with some different behavioral questions and why I wanted this position. The manager told me I would hear back within a few days and I received an offer the next day.

Tell me about your organizational skills, like how you would handle a group project
I interviewed with the OR educator and the OR nurse manager. The interview included open ended questions and a tour of the operating room. I had to come twice as I interviewed with the OR educator first then the OR nurse manager on the second round.
Very simple conversation. Small ten minute conversation between hiring manager. I was asked 3 questions about my interest in the field. Great description of the unit and expectations. Was called later that week with an offer.
