The interviewer asks this question to see how ambitious you are and to determine if you have thought about what you want to accomplish if hired. You want to have goals and show the interviewer that you will benefit AdventHealth, but you do not want to appear as if you will immediately start making changes without having worked in your position for a while.

"When we spoke earlier, you mentioned that you urgently sought to improve the level of patient care and compassion at this facility. I want to offer my skills in building patient rapport and help improve the satisfaction of everyone that uses the services of AdventHealth. I plan to make a positive impact very quickly."

"If hired today, I would commit to diving into every resource provided to me, speeding up the learning curve typical of a new hire who is also new to their career. I will soak in every learning opportunity that comes my way so that I can be a self-sufficient member of your healthcare team within the first 30 days."

When you start a new position, it is essential to be clear on how you will make a positive impact after being hired. This question is delicate, and you need to show respect for the onboarding process, then give a moderately ambitious project that you could execute. This concept is often called your 'value proposition' in marketing. 'Hire me because I'll do X.'
Remember, this is your campaign promise. If hired, it will likely be your first target to hit; depending on the environment, it could make or break you. The best approach is to give a functional analysis of the employers' needs and your skills. Tell the interviewer your impact goal, should you be a successful candidate. Be sure to refer to the company's immediate needs, such as increasing budgets, or improving patient care, for instance.
