25. Why do you feel it is important to have a positive attitude as a Certified Nursing Assistant at our organization?
How to Answer
We all know that a negative attitude can rub off on others. The same can be said about a positive attitude. Not only will it show others around you that you see the good in things, but others will want to spend time with you. Your resume shows the interviewer that you are good at your job, and now you need to let the interviewer know that you are pleasant to work with and be around daily. Talk about your own personal experiences in how bringing a positive and bright attitude to work impacts all people around you and how you will continue to bring this attitude to this organization.

"I am a positive person and always do what's necessary to bring the best out in others around me. If my colleagues are in a good mood, it helps make the job easier and the patients happier. If hired at your organization, you'll quickly find that I come to work every day with a smile on my face and a great attitude to be around."

2nd Answer Example
"Displaying a negative attitude at work only implies to patients and staff that you don't like your job. Unfortunately, I have had the opportunity to work with people who brought a negative attitude to work almost daily. I always have a positive attitude, not only because I love my job, but that I hope it will rub off on others."
