THANKS Richard 👍
Here’s the FULL LIST of HEALTHCARE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
Q1. Tell me about yourself and why you want to work in Healthcare?
SUGGESTED ANSWER:
“I am somebody who gets immense satisfaction from helping people and also working alongside others to achieve a common goal or task. Over the years I have built up lots of skills and experience that are a strong fit for this healthcare role. These include genuine empathy and understanding for patients and clients, excellent communication skills, and the ability to adapt my style of communication to suit an audience, excellent teamwork capabilities, and also a positive attitude to my work and towards life in general. I want to work in healthcare because no two days are ever the same, you get to work with like-minded people who are all making a difference to people within the community, and the work environment is both stimulating and rewarding.”
Q2. Why do you want to work here?
SUGGESTED ANSWER
“I want to work for your organization for the simple reason you have a strong set of values, you genuinely care about your patients and clients, and the people I have spoken to who currently work here, all speak highly of the management team that is in place. In healthcare, there are organizations that put patients first, and there are also organizations that don’t. You clearly do put patients are the forefront of everything you do, and based on my own work values and ethics, this is very much somewhere I can see myself working for a long period of time.”
