The interviewers want to see that you have a keen interest in continually learning your craft. The medical industry is ever-changing! Talk about how you stay updated on industry trends, breakthroughs, social concerns, and more. List a few medical journals you like to read and discuss how often you dive into medical-related news. Perhaps you subscribe to a particular magazine or blog or follow certain social media accounts.
It's also a great idea to ask the interviewers about their favorite ways to stay in touch on medical-related current events. Asking this question in return can make for great dialogue, and you never know what you will learn!

"I love reading PLOS Magazine and The Lancet regularly. I also subscribe to Kaiser Health News and The Wall Street Journal Health Blog in addition to these medical journals. Diversifying where my news comes from is important, and I would love some fresh suggestions. What are your favorite places for news on current trends?"
