Likely interview questions for this role

Written from this job description, not a generic list. Each one notes what the interviewer is really checking.

About your past

Tell me about a time the treatment team disagreed with your nutrition recommendation. What happened?

What they are checking: Whether they can advocate for a nutrition plan with evidence while staying open to the team's view.

What do you document after a nutrition session, and how do you make sure the team reads it?

What they are checking: Whether their notes are clear and they communicate key findings directly instead of hoping the chart is read.

What would you do

A patient on an antipsychotic has gained a lot of weight and wants to stop the medication. How do you talk with them about nutrition?

What they are checking: Whether they can give drug and nutrient education without undermining the psychiatric treatment plan.

A patient with depression tells you they mostly eat fast food and do not see why it matters. How do you respond?

What they are checking: Whether they can motivate change without lecturing a patient who may have little energy for it.

About the work

Walk me through how you use the Nutrition Care Process with a newly admitted patient in a mental health program.

What they are checking: Whether they can apply assessment, diagnosis, intervention and monitoring in order, not just name the steps.

Nursing flags a patient at nutritional risk during screening. How do you decide how soon and how deeply to assess them?

What they are checking: Whether they can prioritize by risk level, which the program uses to manage a full caseload.

How would you run a grocery store tour or cooking group for patients who struggle with planning and motivation?

What they are checking: Whether they can make life-skills nutrition practical for people whose illness affects daily functioning.

How do you account for a patient's cultural, ethnic or personal food preferences when building a plan?

What they are checking: Whether they build plans the patient will actually follow, instead of a standard plan they will ignore.

When would you recommend a transition between enteral and oral feeding, and who do you involve in that decision?

What they are checking: Whether they understand transitional feeding and work through the multidisciplinary team rather than alone.

How do you decide how often a patient needs individual nutrition therapy?

What they are checking: Whether they set frequency by need and progress, rather than seeing everyone on the same schedule.
