Dignity Health's website says the company's history is rooted in kindness. Dignity Health began as a single hospital founded on the belief that all people deserve medical care, regardless of their background, ethnicity, or circumstances. Dignity Health also has a motto spread across its website, "hello, human kindness." The interviewer asks this question to see if you are a kind person and will fit the company culture if hired.

If you are in the healthcare industry, you most likely are a kind and compassionate person. Focus on telling the interviewer how you are a kind person by giving examples of the everyday things you do to spread kindness. If you have past performance reviews or letters of recommendation that highlight your kind demeanor, highlight those in your response.

"Yes, I do consider myself a kind person. I always make a point to help others and put a smile on their face. It can be something as simple as buying a cup of coffee for the crosswalk guard at my daughter's school or taking a blanket and warm clothes to a homeless person on the corner of my street. I do not think it is hard to be kind to everyone we encounter in our lives each day."
