"As you can see from my resume, I've been an active participant in athletics through my younger ages, in high school, and into college, and have been the captain of many teams. I'm a motivational person who stays positive in the face of adversity, and I know this will benefit me on any team here at Mount Sinai Hospital. My goal throughout my career is to grow into leadership roles and one-day nursing administration."

"Yes, I have been involved with new-hire nurse training and having students or other new nurses shadow me. I have assisted with projects involving the education of the nurses and student nurses who do clinical rotations on our floor. These experiences have taught me many great qualities about being a leader that will help me greatly as an RN with the Mount Sinai Hospital."

To successfully answer this question, talk about any experiences you have in formally supervising others and any experiences you have in mentoring colleagues or students. If you do not have experience supervising or mentoring other nurses, a supervision or mentorship experience in another setting would suffice for your answer. If you are young in your career and lack this overall experience, be sure to express your interest in any future opportunities to lead as part of the team you'll be joining at Mount Sinai Hospital.
