QUESTION 24 OF 35

Who in your life mentors or inspires you?

Your life's inspiration can come from a mentor, your family, a celebrity, an author - literally anyone! Talk to the interviewers about who has inspired your life and why.

"I find inspiration in a variety of people and things. I would have to say that the person who has most greatly inspired me has been my grandmother. She always had a smile on her face no matter how hard she worked, and she loved everyone. She was well respected and always gave more than she received. I try to live like her as much as I can."

When responding to this question, you want to focus on naming a person that will not be controversial to the interview panel. For example, you want to refrain from using a political or religious figure as the interviewers may have different views and beliefs.
