"As I embarked on a job search to put my full skillset as a Certified Nursing Assistant to use, researching compensation was just one of many important aspects of my search. While I am confident that your pay range for this position fits my needs, I am more confident that my values perfectly match the mission and values of your organization, and that makes us a match made in heaven for each other."

Prior to applying and interviewing with this organization, you hopefully have done your homework on the compensation provided for this role to ensure that it meets your needs. Depending on the facility, the hourly rate for a CNA can vary pretty widely. On top of that, the job market for CNAs is wide open, and your interviewer has likely struggled to find quality staff in the past. After doing your homework, you can certainly be honest with your interviewer about our current salary and where you hope to be if hired for this role. Justify your answer with your skills and experiences that you would be bringing to their team. Just make sure that you are not pricing yourself out to your interviewer.

"Currently, I am in my first Certified Nursing Assistant position in a skilled nursing facility and earning 13.00 per hour with some shift differentials. Knowing that my duties would be taking a significant increase here, I am hoping to receive an offer that would compensate me higher than I am now to make the switch. Over time here, I expect to prove my worth to this organization every day."
