A solid answer to this question will reflect your philosophy of nursing and commitment to quality of care. Even if the hospital's pay and benefits package is the best, compensation should not be mentioned in your top three considerations. The interviewer already knows where the organization ranks in terms of salary and benefits. They are looking for more thoughtful answers that reflect your character. Read through the hospital's mission statement and the types of care offered, and craft your response to complement those features.
