QUESTION 17 OF 31

Why is IWK's mission in the Maritime region in Canada important to you?

Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island make up the Maritime region in the very eastern part of Canada. The region is very rich in culture and history and your interviewer will be looking to hear that you are entrenched in the culture and history of the region because they know that life outside of work is equally important in retaining you as an employee. Whether you grew up in the region and have worked their your whole life or you will be looking to relocate, it is important that you let your interviewer know that you will be able to thrive in the region while serving the mission of IWK Health Centre at the same time.

"I was born and raised in the more rural area of Arichat, but knew I wanted to pursue a career in healthcare at a young age. Having only left the region to train in midwifery, I am excited about the prospect of coming back to Nova Scotia to help the residents here. Our richly diverse population here in the province is where my heart lies and you'll quickly find that if I'm hired, I will be here for the remainder of my career."
