OUR FREE SERVICES & EVENTS
Diversity CRNA Interview Services
The Diversity CRNA Interview Committee services are provided by an all-volunteer committee of diverse CRNAs from across the country.
The Diversity CRNA Interview Services are designed to help prospective SRNAs in preparing for the CRNA school entrance interview. The methodology involves two stages: basic and advanced.
The Basic Session exposes the prospect to the question types, examples, and critiques on answers by attendees who volunteered to participate in the simulated interview. A panelist of 2-3 CRNAs also gives tips, advice, and rationales for the questions asked, as well as guidance on how to prepare to answer difficult questions.
The Advanced Matrix Session (only open to former participants of the Basic session) is a simulated interview, where the CRNA panelists engage in the interview process as if it were the actual interview. In this session, the prospect enters the interview and is asked questions. The panelists only give feedback at the end of the interview process.
It is expected that all attendees dress appropriately and come with the mindset of professionalism, as expected in the real interview process.
