The interviewer would like to dig deeper into your areas of interest regarding healthcare services. They want to know that your passions align well with what Imperial College Healthcare NHS Trust offers. Talk to the interviewer about the areas of healthcare you would like to focus on most, and then tie that information in with what the position at Imperial College Healthcare would offer you.

"After looking at the extensive services you offer, I would choose to expand my knowledge in reconstructive surgery. This interest is one of the reasons I have applied to your company, as you offer many types of reconstructive surgery. This area fascinates me as I have a younger sister who had multiple facial surgeries after being attacked by a dog when she was three years old. She lost an ear and part of her nose, both of which have been reconstructed. I am amazed by what can be done and would like to learn more."

"An area that interests me is dementia care. I am signed up for a dementia care course that starts next week since my grandmother was recently diagnosed with early-onset dementia. She lives with me, and I want to learn how to better care for her as the disease progresses. If offered the position, I would be interested in exploring this area more with Imperial College Healthcare."
