The interviewer will ask this question if one of the job duties is to train and mentor others. It could be that your job would be to train coworkers, teach patients and family members about the patient's illness, or mentor healthcare students. The interviewer wants to determine your experience and qualifications in a teaching capacity to see if you will be a good fit for the Mayo Clinic.
