Heading into your interview for this PICU nurse role, you should have a pretty good idea of the scheduling expectations of the position through the job posting that you read or the advertisement you saw. Similar to other critical care and inpatient settings, shift nurses will staff the unit every hour of every day, and your interviewer will be looking to hear that you have the availability required for the position. They also want to know if their top candidate has any time commitments that they should work with.
