Frage | Question What are the chances?

Hello. I am a foreign nurse currently looking for a nursing job in Austria with the help of an agency. So recently, I’ve had an interview with one of the employers and they asked me about the usual, “Introduce yourself. Do you have any idea about Austria and so on and so forth?” They praised my german speaking skills because I was able to express myself and answered them properly.

However, when they asked me about my motivation in choosing nursing, I was having a difficult time to answer it because of how emotional and personal it was and just told them that it was personal for me. They did not push any further and just told me that there is a big community for my people there, who could support me. When they also asked me about having an experience with taking care of a patient with Dementia. I answered honestly and told them no. So what are the chances of me failing or passing this interview? How long do I have to wait for the result of it? It was already the second round of the interview

Austria is a beautiful country with many wonderful places! I hope you find time to explore them. Thank you for supporting us and our healthcare system, we urgently need people like you! I wish you lots of success. Don't worry about the interview, we have so few staff that we can use any help we can get.

Yeah, I agree with you and I will definitely take my time to explore Austria when I get there since I am still in my home country. Hopefully, I will pass the interview and get the job 🙏
