&lt;p&gt;They offered me the job! I can&amp;#39;t wait- I&amp;#39;ve got a few more weeks before I start though- I think those are going to drag!!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Look smart and well groomed, ask questions etc.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As you have a friend that works at the practice they may expect you to know a bit about the practices background, so if you dont then find out a little. Have they got a website?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Make sure you know what your goals are for the future, e.g want to qualify, then maybe train as clinical coach or even go for head nurse etc.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tell them everything you have been trained to do, and also be prepared for the dreaded question.......what are your weaknesses?? I always hated that question lol&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Im no great at interviews but have just started a position as head nurse and these are the things I would look for.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
