Ryan Brunner has over ten years of experience recruiting, interviewing, and hiring candidates in the healthcare, public service, and private manufacturing/distribution industries.

To prove that you would have the drive and motivation at Adventist Health as a CNA, your interviewer is looking for your personal motivation to succeed in this career. Prior to your interview, try to do your own personal soul searching to put your motivation for this role into words. Whether you were impacted by a personal family situation or love helping people in a time of need, make sure your interviewer walks away from your conversation knowing that you are dedicated and driven as a Certified Nursing Assistant.

"At an early age, I was inspired by my grandmother, who was a nurse for her entire career. She really inspired me by the care she showed for others when they needed it most. I am a personally motivated CNA who lives to help patients as best as I can and walks them through a difficult time in their health and well-being."
