What experience do you have relating to people with a background different from yours?

"I enjoy listening to the stories of people from generations before me and with backgrounds different from mine. I will eagerly strike up a conversation with anyone in an attempt to learn something new. I recently read that ageism is still a prevalent issue in the workplace, which I find unfortunate. My mentor once advised me to seek friendships with people of different generations, which has stuck with me. There are many benefits of friendships across generations, including a much broader perspective on life. I also notice different communication styles and core values, which I find interesting. Rest assured, should you choose me to join your team at Regeneron, I will get to know my co-workers with an open mind and an interest in their background and story."

Everybody has a powerful and unique story regarding their background, culture, experiences, and beliefs. Talk to the interviewer about the exposure you bring relating to others with a narrative different from yours. Your interviewer at Regeneron will want to see your open-mindedness and desire to grow in acceptance of those different from you from past work experiences and that you'll bring this same open-mindedness to their team.
