The interviewer asks if you are accustomed to working with diverse groups to determine if you will be a good fit for the team. Assure the interviewer that you can handle an environment that offers diversity. Even better, give an example of being able to embrace diversity in the workplace.

"Yes, I am accustomed to working with diverse groups and am so glad you pointed out your need for diversity at Stanford Health Care-Stanford Hospital. I greatly value diversity. I grew up in a fairly homogeneous town in northern Idaho. When I hit my 20s, it was important to me to learn about other cultures. I worked with community volunteer organizations in Peru, inner-city Chicago, and Russia and learned much about diversity. I loved seeing how other people live and learning about different cultures."

If you have worked with diverse groups, explain when you have done so and what you enjoy about diversity. If you have not been exposed to much diversity, describe how you do not have experience working with diverse groups but look forward to doing so.
