Your post-secondary education is significant in displaying your ability to complete a degree, multitask, and apply yourself. Your interviewer can see your educational path by looking at your resume. Still, this question allows you to explain your post-secondary education and how it has prepared you for the role you are interviewing for at Cardinal Health.
"I have a bachelor's degree in biology from Tampa College of Natural and Health Sciences. I graduated with honors which was an especially proud moment for me since I had also been working part-time."
"I recently graduated from the University of Georgia with my degree in pharmaceutical science. With this degree, I look forward to joining Cardinal Health and carving out a great career with you. When the timing is right, I do plan to return to school to obtain my master's degree in a science-based field. This extension of learning, of course, would be in tandem with my full-time job."

As you answer, you want to exude confidence in discussing how your post-secondary education makes you the ideal candidate for the team. Take some time to walk the interviewer through your post-secondary experience, highlighting any recognition or awards you may have achieved. Also, be sure to mention if you are working towards or have obtained a master's or doctoral degree, especially if it is required for the position you are interviewing for.

I earned my bachelor of science degree from McNeese State University where I studied biomedical sciences. I received honors and was on the Dean's list. I also worked part-time at the local hospital where I could apply my laboratory skills.

When I graduated from High School all I knew was I wanted to be a writer. At the time I knew that print journalism didn't have a good outlook with the dawn of the internet, so I looked to being able to write for marketing purposes. This led to my major in Public Relations and Communications. I minored in business management so I could gain that understanding as well.
