Default Interview Questions.....

Hi everyone,
I know how scary interviews can be so thought a interview questions thread would be a good idea.

If youve had an interview or know anyone who has and you want to add any questions you have been asked or someone you know has be asked then you can add it here to help others out...

Why do you want to be a midwife?

What is the role of the midwife?

How would you cope if a woman in your care had a stillbirth?

What qualities do you think you could bring to midwifery?

What does a midwife actually do?

The midwifery course is stressful and demanding - what do you do to relieve stress?

How would you deal with women from different cultures/social classes?

How do you think a midwife differs from a nurse?
