In the fast-paced world of an ICU, providing the best care possible requires diligent synchronization of efforts from Intensivists, nursing staff, respiratory therapists, and all other staff. The program you are interviewing with must match fellows who can take direction and take the lead when necessary, all while being a true team player. With this question, your interviewers are giving you chance to talk about the type of team player you will be as part of their program.

Explain that you are a great communicator, can take direction, and can take charge and lead others when needed. Discuss your experiences as part of a larger team during your residency training and the role you are most comfortable playing on a team. While this is an open-ended question, be sure to give some semblance of your ability to lead others respectfully.

"I have always thrived in a team environment and can be very fluid in my roles on a team, as long as it is for the greater good. I am most comfortable leading others and can't wait to do this with the team of nursing staff and other care staff at your institution as a Critical Care fellow. My leadership starts with building rapport with my team and keeping lines of communication open on both ends. I encourage others to come to me when needed and don't hesitate to give constructive feedback to my team members when necessary."
