      How to Answer

      Per their career site, Kaiser Permanente does its best to assure that the top candidates who apply for any role have the skills and experience that align with the job. If you were contacted for a formal interview, you can be assured that the team is confident in what you will bring to the job. While some of their positions have a salary range posted on their career site and others do not, the fact that Kaiser utilizes a pay scale based on experience is something your interviewer will want to ensure that you understand. If you have healthcare experience, you are likely familiar with similar type wage scales. You want to reiterate that you are open to a salary scale that is reflective of the education and experience you bring to the position as you answer this question.
