Application Process & Interviews at Ramsay Health Care

It took a long time to find out about the job

Interview process includes application, zoom/in person group interview and individual interview.

Very slow. Had other offers and GPH was weeks later with their offers. Nearly chose another hospital because of this delay. Also only hearing about rotation at the last minute isn't fair either. Most other hospitals let you know rotation on their offer. Waiting on shifts to the last minute also wasn't great.

Group and Individual assessment

They are simple and straight forward.

Quite lengthy and complicated.

Zoom meeting Online application forms and procedures Easy to apply and navigate

Formal interview process is very professional, management will listen to existing staff for referrals of potential new staff

The interview was comfortable - the staff were wonderful and friendly. The interview questions were as expected for a nursing interview. I had 4 new grad interviews and this was by far the most favourable and left the best impression. I particularly liked that my employment as a new grad was permanent and not a position that I would have to reapply for after my year is over.

The interview was friendly and non-confrontational. The interviewers made me feel comfortable and connected with me in meaningful ways.

We had a group interview where we went through a team building scenario. A written exam and then a one on one interview.

I found the interview process straight forward, it didn't feel like there were so many hoops to jump through and a long wait to find out the result. The people that interviewed me were down to earth and friendly, not intimidating.

Timely process

The recruitment process was tough - with lots of different stages to get through. After completing the application, we had to complete psychmetric tests and reasoning tests. Then, there was an online interview, and then a assessment day where we had to prepare a presentation, complete a teamwork activity and complete another interview.

The interview process was very quick which I liked as I didn't have to wait months for an answer. The process involved an initial application from where I answered questions about myself and why I wanted to join the company. I included my CV and cover letter with this. The second stage was completing 4 psychometric tests. The next stage after this was an online interview where I recorded my answers to 3 different questions. After this I attended an assessment centre which included a group activity, a presentation and then a 1 to 1 interview.

4 round recruitment process. We had some psychometric and logical reasoning tests, then a pre-recorded online interview answering questions as they appeared on the screen, then a virtual assessment centre working on a case study scenario and an individual interview with people from Ramsay/Elysium

The Interview process was smooth and easy

Anyone can get hired

Group interview, pretty easy hiring process

Interview process was very professional but also very relaxed it was not intimidating or awkward like other interviews I have had in the past

Why I wanted to work at Ramsay healthcare? What areas of nursing interest me Where I see myself in 5 years Scenario based questions Personality questions based on previous experiences

A clinical situation (blood infusion and reaction). Tell us a little about yourself

Met call scenario

Why I applied for my role, what recommends me... I had some situational tests, a group work test, etc.

Tell us about yourself Work history Nurses questions And about the graduate program

Why I want to work for the company, do I want to further educate and apply for higher positions

About myself and what I could bring to the role. I was asked what 3 words best describe me. I was asked about my future study plans, what commitment I would like to make in terms of full time or part time. What areas of interest I would like to work within.

Questions ranged from clinical knowledge and previous experience to who my "heroes" are, books I read and leisure activities. It was a disarming and informative set of questions which I believe allowed the interviewers to get a glimpse of the real "me" whilst at the same time assess my suitability for the role.

For the group one we were given a list of things to use on an island to survive and told we could only pick a certain amount. For the written portion we were given questions about different patient scenarios and what we would do. For the singular portion we were asked how we would deal with working with someone we don't like or who is difficult to work with. I can't remember the other questions but those are the main ones that come to mind

Strengths, weaknesses, a couple of simple clinical questions.

Graduate-related questions such as, how would you respond to chest pain, what would you do if you found yourself overwhelmed with your workload etc.

Clinical and behavioural

Where I studied - When my studies finished - If I have experience in this field - How I believe I would fit in

Example situations that could happen in the workforce

Basic questions

General nursing scenarios

Where do I see myself in the future Do I plan to stick around What are my goals What assets can I bring to the company etc

Do I know the Ramsay way

It was much related to my experience as a student nurse and how I dealth with everything. Except this there was a activity to observe how able you are to cut the cost of expenses of hospital as a responsible nurse while providing appropriate care.

Why ramsay grad program -what will grad program o?er you -tell me about yourself -what do you like to do in your free time - what skills do u possess that will assist you in this role - who inspires you

Research the company Look at there experience to date and real life scenarios to show how you will integrate and develop at the company Be prepared to consider what you want from your program and your future as a nurse.

Be patient but reach out and ask questions if need more information. Come with an open mind, friendly attitude and hard working ethic.

Research the company and study different scenarios

Know information about the company.

Be present, there and then. Listen and show consideration for other's input, stay focused on time and topic. Sort of be yourself. Sort of.

Ask questions Alot of them Find your nearest friend on the ward Don't be scared to ask for time off They don't bite

research the company and site of potential employment.

Always research the company you are going to... have questions ready to ask to show that you've looked in to it and what further information you would like. Sell yourself first before asking what the company can do for you. Be honest in what you are looking for but reasonable in what can be offered to meet your individual needs.

Be yourself. Once you hit the floor, any persona you mimic in the interview will be stripped away and your true self will be exposed.

I think just be yourself and know the Ramsay way.

Do your research and present yourself well, communicate politely and openly, smile.

Be yourself.

I would advise them to just be themselves. They should also do some research and find out as much as they can about the company and their values as this is a very big part of the company. They should practice their presentation skills and always ask questions at the end of the interview.

Research the company and read the annual reports.

Be confident with what you're saying

If you know your stuff and have common sense you will be fine

Just be yourself. Be open and honest with your intentions. Clear professional communication and show that you are a caring compassionate person because the Ramsay way is people caring for people

Be confident

Incorporate ramsay values into your answer

Know about the company prior to the interview. Be yourself. Don't try and compete with everyone. Listen to their responses, accept their ideas and then follow up with your own. Make sure to include everyone in a group discussion.
