When you are new to your career, you will often have to put in a 10X effort to grow your career and work your way up the rungs in your new organization. The interviewer wants to see that you are willing to put in the work that it takes. This added effort may mean studying in the evening while you train in your new position. Maybe it means getting the less desirable shifts at first. Whatever efforts are required, show the interviewer your willingness to make it happen.

"I am fully prepared to work the overtime hours required to make me excellent in this job. I am excited to be joining the workforce and plan to make an impact through a solid dedication level."
