How long is the live mock interview?

Each live mock interview lasts 45 minutes.

Who is the interviewer?

Your session is led by a real interviewer. Registered nurses, nurse educators, and admissions-trained interviewers who understand nursing school interviews.

Is the live mock interview recorded / do I get a recording?

Session recordings are kept confidential. A recording copy is not listed in the session packs; ask before booking if you need one. Every session includes a written report.

Is this in person or online?

The live mock interview takes place online over video, not in person.

How is my interview scored?

Your interviewer provides rubric scores and written feedback on your answers within 12 hours of the session.

Can I customize it to my target school?

Yes. Tell us your target programs and your coach will run the session in that school's format, including traditional or panel interviews with advocacy, teamwork, and clinical scenario follow-ups.

What's the cost and how do I book?

One 45-minute session costs $149. Choose a session pack and book online; two- and three-session packs are also available.

How long before my real interview should I book?

Most nursing school applicants book 1 to 2 weeks before their interview date. That leaves time to apply feedback and run a second session if you need one.

What if I need to reschedule?

You can reschedule up to 24 hours in advance.

Is this confidential?

Absolutely. Your application materials and session recordings are never shared outside your coaching session.

Should I book multiple sessions?

We recommend at least two sessions so you have time to review feedback, rehearse, and show measurable improvement.

What's your refund policy?

We do not offer refunds for live coaching sessions. You can reschedule any session with 24 hours notice.

Question reviewed

You believe a medication order could harm your patient, but the prescriber is dismissive. What do you do?

What worked

Kept patient safety ahead of hierarchy without being confrontational.
Described verifying the order before escalating.

Rework before interview day

State the exact chain of escalation you would use if the concern was brushed off.
Separate what you would document from what you would say aloud.

Your interviewer's note

Your advocacy instinct is exactly right. Make the verification step explicit first, then the escalation path, so the panel hears a safe process rather than a personality clash.
