When you start a new position, it is essential to be clear on how you will make a positive impact after being hired. This question is a delicate one, and your interviewer wants to hear how you would show respect for the onboarding process. After addressing that, talk about the first thing you would want to accomplish on the job. This concept is often called your "value proposition" in marketing.

Be sure to refer to the immediate needs of the organization, such as improving patient care.
