"I noticed at Medtronic that you have offices in over 20 countries. That is exciting to me. I'd love to be in this role for several years, but after that, I could use the skills I've learned to work in one of your global locations. I'd love to work overseas for a few years and then come back to a leadership role."

"One of the elements of Medtronic that I love is the career growth opportunities. I'd love to take the knowledge I'll gain in this role and move to the sales organization to be the person in front of clinicians, showing them the great things our devices can do. When you are selling something you believe in, it doesn't feel like selling; it just feels like helping people."

I see there are different products within Medtronic. I like to work at the current positions for several years. I would like to become an NPI manufacturing engineer working closely with R&D and process development engineers. I am also interested in becoming a project manager because I am good at managing time and getting things done. I will see what opportunities are available.

I was originally interested in Medtronic to work with insulin pumps, however, after more research, Medtronic does so much more. I would love the opportunity to use my skills to advance other technologies in the medical field, especially in software development.
