When you are asked to share advice, remember to always be positive. Anyone can find a negative about something, and true enough, there are some days that are more difficult than others. The interviewer wants to know that you are confident about your decision, confident enough that you can share this with others.

"I would tell someone considering this profession that there is so much more to this job than I ever could have imagined. I would say, the only limit to your potential in nursing is what you believe you can or cannot do. Never sell yourself, or your capabilities of bringing value to other's lives, short."

"If I were asked to give someone advice regarding the nursing field, I would tell them that knowledge and skills can be learned and developed. Passion, on the other hand, comes from within. I would encourage them to work hard and care just as hard."

There are good and bad days, but if it is a passion for you I would jump in with both feet. There is a lot of on-the-job learning, but ask for help when you need it, learn from your mistakes and be open to the learning opportunities as they present themselves.
