"I do feel it is important for an Audiologist to learn sign language. Sign language is sometimes the only way a patient knows how to interact, and I need to know how to help them."

In addition to learning sign language, you must also learn about and respect deaf culture. Have you had the opportunity to work with patients in a hearing clinic or neuroscience lab? Did you take a course in school? Are you self-taught? Let the interviewer know that you have been able to effectively communicate with your deaf patients through sign language.
