The interviewer asks this question to ensure you are comfortable working with diverse groups of people. As a leading healthcare provider, Orlando Health is continually striving to incorporate multicultural and diversity awareness into its patient care -- making every patient experience the best experience possible, every time.

Central Florida is home to a diverse cultural population and visitors from around the world, which is reflected in its patient population. Orlando Health's Culture and Language Resources Department is a valuable resource for providing culturally competent care for all patients and guests. The interviewer wants to know that you will work well with their diverse patient population if hired.

If you have worked with diverse groups of people, explain how you enjoy diversity in the workplace and why. If you have not been exposed to a diverse patient population, assure the interviewer that you work well with everyone and have no cultural bias.

"I have worked with a diverse patient population most of my career. Working in a major city allowed me to meet patients from all over the world. I enjoy learning about new cultures and customs and look forward to working with your diverse patient population at Orlando Health."

"I am so glad you pointed out your diverse patient population at Orlando Health. I greatly value diversity and was not exposed to diverse groups of people growing up. When I went to college, I was exposed to diversity and enjoyed meeting people with different backgrounds and customs. I made a good friend from India and traveled with her one summer. She exposed me to how other people live in the world, and it was certainly a wonderful experience. I look forward to the opportunity to serve your diverse patient population at Orlando Health."
