There are so many roads you can go down as a dietitian and nutritionist. Have you had the opportunity to work within gerontological nutrition, sports dietetics, pediatric nutrition, renal nutrition or oncology nutrition? Which interests you the most? If you hold a certification in one of these specialties, tell the interviewer all about it. If you've always wanted to work in a specific specialty, let the interviewer know that you're anxious to start and excited to learn more.
