So I had my interview with MedStar in Fort Worth, TX.

I had to take a 100-question multiple choice test, then I was interviewed by three people from the company, then I had a clinical interview where I was given scenarios and I had to say what I'd do.

They said they'd call me within two days, and it's day two now. I was really nervous during the interview. Call me pessimistic, but I don't think I did a good job.

Any opinions/comments/suggestions?
 
confidence is the key.
 
at this point, you cant change anything. have a cocktail and chill. maybe things got busy around their and they havent had time to call you back. i wouldnt get to concerned till about a week after you were supposed to have heard. then give them a call.

as far as next time if it becomes applicable, about the only advice i can give you is know your protocols cold. cover to cover and all the appendices. know what they say and more importantly, know what they mean. once you know the rules, you know how to answer the theoretical questions.
 
I agree with Kev on that matter. Worse comes to worse, atleast you have learned some interview skills. Just a mere speed bump in the life of a medic. :P

I wish you the best of luck that a call will come in soon, the waiting seems to be that hardest part.

J:blush:
 
Boogger it, press on.

Get another job. If they call you back, you can tell em you got a job already. If you later on want a job with them, maybe they'll remember that and snap you up.

Interviewing is a skill and it takes time to develop. I'm a big proponent of calling the employer who didn't hire you and asking them if they would be willing to discuss why you didn't get hired so you can address those deficeits in future interviews. Most employers will be willing to help you out with that. You do however have to be able to hear some possible harsh truths.
