      "I think the medical devices field is exciting, it is something I am very passionate about and it is something that if the product is developed well will increase the quality of life to help sustain life, it depends on the risk-benefit profile of the device that is offset by quality by design and the innovation of the team."

      Amanda's Feedback

      It's clear that you feel medical devices help improve lives. Now, take your answer a step further by talking about the characteristics or skills you have that make you a natural fit for this industry, such as creativity, resourcefulness, compassion, etc., and how those skills would benefit you in the role you're applying to. In addition, if there's a specific disease or health condition that you're passionate about addressing through medical devices, relate what that is and why it's important to you.
