My name is Mandy Schaub.  I'm a hospital based lactation consultant in 
Greenville, South Carolina.  I am hoping someone can send along some 
intelligent interview questions.  In the next week I will be participating in the 
interviewing of Labor/Delivery/Postpartum Managers as well as Lactation 
Consultant candidates.  I'd love some insight into great interview questions.  
I've interviewed people before for completely unrelated jobs.  The interviews 
for the Manager have me the most anxious.  I'm bascially helping to interview 
my potential boss.  And very happy to be included in on the process.  The 
Manager interviews will be in a group consisting of me, a nurse, a seceretary 
and a scrub tech.  I'd like to come across in a positive way, but also get a 
real feeling for how they view lactation consultants.  Our previous boss, 
though not necessarily an advocate herself, was supportive of us.  She pretty 
much let us (there are 4 LC's currently on staff) run ourselves and supplied us 
with what we needed.  
I'd also like some questions for LC candidates.  I'll be the only one interviewing 
the LC candidates.  The only LC position I've been in on hiring was already a 
well known hardworking postpartum nurse whose fit with us was a "no-
brainer".  Our current candidates are big unknowns.  And none of them are 
IBCLC certified (our posting states they have to be able to certifiy within 1 
year of being hired).  So thanks for any help you can send my way!
