QUESTION 20 OF 25

Why should we hire you?

"In addition to meeting the educational requirements for this position, I also have a certificate in human kinetics. I have a unique understanding of how diet and movement work together to create successful plans for my clients."

"I am a unique hire because I have worked as a dietician in a public, and private, health setting. I am also bilingual in English and Spanish so I can easily connect with a wide variety of clients."

This is where your 30 to 45-second elevator speech comes in! Take your time to tell the interviewer a bit about your work history, educational background, and something unique about yourself. Keep your answer short yet impactful. Wow the interviewer and set yourself apart from the rest of the competition.

"When I read the job posting I noticed that you were looking for someone with experience working with children. As you can see on my resume, I have ten years experience as a dietitian and 3 of those years was spent working specifically with children in a school setting. I have additional training in working with children affected by childhood obesity."
