Typically, when asked this question in an interview, a candidate's role model, or figure of inspiration, will offer a glimpse into their personality, philosophy, and their approach to life and work. Inspirational people motivate us to keep going when we feel like giving up. Talk to the interviewer about who has inspired your life and why. Be relatable and try to inspire conversation. How well you get along with your interviewer will also offer insights on how well you will get along with the mentor they place you with.

"Yes, I do. My mentor is in the Marine Corps. They took me under their wing, and I learned a lot. We still have a strong relationship to this day, and I still consider them my hero."

Yes, my role model and mentor is my professor for my Masters program. Not only has he worked on very important cases that are known around the country, but he is a very intelligent and respected man within the scientific community.
