Aww I can't believe you are only left with 6 months congratulations, I started following you when you were just starting your second year

[@ClaireCarmichael]

Mutsa Mutsa Thank you so much! It goes so fast doesn’t it 😱 I’m so Excited to qualify now! 💕🥰 xx

[@ataa_m]

Got the job watching this video. Thank you.

[@smotonisi2244]

I watched your video a day before my 2 community nurses interviews. Got an offer for both!!! Thank you for your tips. I asked on one of them what they would say to a ward nurse about their job and skills because there's the stereotype that community nurses have no skills! I'm 2 months from qualifying!

[@ClaireCarmichael]

Oh that’s a great question!!! Well done! Whooop! Congratulations 🥳 x

[@sarahlouise3600]

Congratulations Clare!! I'm hoping to go into community when I qualify as I absolutely loved my 2.1 placement!! I watched your other vid and cried with you, it's taken me 10 years also so I know how incredibly emotional has been. You've really done yourself proud clare and I thank you for your vlogs, they've helped massively!! Well done!! Xx

[@ClaireCarmichael]

Sarah Louise Thank you so so much Sarah! 💕 it’s definitely all worth it that’s for sure 😍 I’m sure you’ll get a community place no problem :) Are you on placement at the minute? Xx

[@sylviacartwright1329]

Hi Claire, I’ve followed and listen to all your videos, and I would like to say, after listening to this and asking the “killer question 😂” I got the job as a community nurse, so a big thank you. Now the pressure is on to qualify, in September! Can’t wait for the book. ❤

[@humayrah7391]

How did the interview go? Did you get the job? :)

[@rachelyoung834]

I have my community nurse interview on Monday! I qualified in 2017 but since then I have extended my family. But Monday is my step back into the world I love, so I’m busy preparing! When I spoke to them before applying them seemed like they could offer me a lot of support in the beginning which is a huge relief! I am excited 😁

[@ClaireCarmichael]

Aw this is amazing!! Congratulations! Whoop! Please let me know how you get on. Im sure you’ll smash it tho! 🙌🏻🥳 x

[@rachelyoung834]

@@ClaireCarmichael I had my interview this morning and got a call this afternoon to say I got the job!!!! They said I interviewed really well and they wouldn’t be able to tell that I hadn’t nursed since 2017! So that was a lovely complement 😁😁😁

@@rachelyoung834 YAY!!! Congratulations! That’s amazing news! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 whoop! Well done!! Xx

[@rachelyoung834]

@@ClaireCarmichael thank you so much! I feel so excited to start my new adventure. I do have a question (or two) if you don’t mind me asking?. Have you any recommendations for books/websites that are specifically for community nursing and also, is there anything you would suggest buying which would be of use and be helpful such as a bag, stationary, nurse accessories? Many thanks! Xx

[@clairecrook3472]

Hi Claire. Thank you so much for making this video. I'm a final year student nurse and I've just got an interview for a community nursing job. It's the place where I'm currently on placement and I love it! I'm not sure whether the fact that they know me from my placement is a good or bad thing (but I guess it can't be too bad as they offered me the interview!). This video has given me some really useful things to think about and will help me so much to feel more prepared. I hope you still love community nursing, From a fellow Claire :)

[@ClaireCarmichael]

Hey! Aw that’s amazing news!! This is going to be a huge bonus going to somewhere you had a placement :) it’s going to make that transition so much smoother for you. You’ll smash the interview! I have no doubt at all about that. I do love community still but I’ve just been offered a new job as an assistant lecturer 😍 can’t wait!! X

[@smotonisi2244]

People working in the community, how was it? Did you work on the ward first? Do you think that is essential??

[@ClaireCarmichael]

No I don’t think working on a ward is essential because it’s a completely different set of skills you’re using :) you’ll learn on the job and be well supported in community 🥰 x

Hi Claire. Thanks for the interview guidance. I have been qualified for just over a year now and have decided I want to work in the community. I loved my community placement during my practice.
