"I am a highly detailed person, and I thrive on having a high level of organization in my day. If I am offered a position with Mount Sinai Hospital, you will never find me to be disorganized! This organization includes my scheduling, paperwork, and more. I utilize my Outlook calendar and set alerts for myself for deadlines and important activities. My documentation is strong as well."

"I'm a bit of a nerd. I carry around a notebook and write down important facts if I think there is a chance I will forget them. But this is usually just for transitions. Every clinic I've ever worked in has its way of communicating and recording facts, so I put time and attention into using the system the people around me are using. That way, it's easier to transition care, and the patient has all their info in the same place. My notebook saves me when I'm swamped, but I try to be efficient and put info directly into the [group record/EMR/chart]."

Talk to the interviewer about how you ensure accuracy and organization in your day-to-day activities. Perhaps you use a particular app or software. Maybe you are a pen and paper person. Whatever your method, be sure to highlight that you successfully organize your day.
