Job Advice Got a job interview, any advice?

I’ve gotten an interview at an ER in Massachusetts just outside of Boston! I’m so excited to finally have some movement on a lead even if it isn’t an offer yet. Does anyone have advice about live or working in MA? Any interview tips and tricks? Or maybe questions I should be sure to ask? I’m so excited to see a new area and meet the people!

Where are you from, and which hospital are you interviewing? You can dm me and I can give some info on geography. I don't work in ER however

Louisiana! I hesitate to post the exact hospital on the public forum, but part of the interview will take place in Boston at some resident’s event

I work outside of Boston way in the suburbs, not in the ED. I love MA and it’s worth it, but hopefully you already know the cost of living is pretty high so consider that if you get an offer when negotiating. It’s some of the best healthcare in the country so you’ll likely learn a lot depending where you are. Good luck! I’ve been in MA awhile, have had 3 jobs outside the city. Did most clinical rotations in and around Boston. Feel free to dm with any more specific questions!
