QUESTION 8 OF 40

At the Cleveland Clinic we seek to hire individuals who value education. Walk me through your related post-secondary education. Where did you struggle the most? Which courses were your favorite?

Talk to the interviewer about your post-secondary education. Discuss your high points and the more challenging points. Do not be afraid to discuss challenging situations you faced at school; the interviewer will appreciate your honesty. Be sure to follow up with how you overcame those challenges. But, be sure not to cross the line of being over dramatic about a challenge you faced.

"I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Nursing from Felician College in 2009. While attending University, I feel that my most challenging course was Statistics for Life Sciences. I completed this course with a B grade. My best course was in Mental Health Studies. I found it to be fascinating and graduated top of my class in that course."

"I recently graduated with my degree in Clinical Medical Assisting. There were many challenges along the way; however, I would say that my overall experience was incredibly positive. If I had to choose my biggest struggle, I would say that Anatomy and Physiology were the most in-depth. With that said, I did receive very high grades in those courses. My favorite subject of study, overall, was Pharmacology."
