Why do you want to work for our agency?
The interviewer wants to hear that you have researched their agency. When responding to this question, highlight unique aspects of their company that stand out from others. You may want to work for their agency because of its stellar reputation, professional growth, and advancement opportunity or because they are a teaching facility for new healthcare professionals entering the field of medicine.
Instead of giving a generic answer to this question, focus on showing the interviewer that you have thoroughly researched their company. For example, if you say that you want to work for their agency because they offer a nursing internship program, that could apply to many other organizations. Instead, say that you want to work for their company because they are one of the best-known names in healthcare and have a reputation for providing the most comprehensive nursing internship program.
"I want to work for your agency because your values align with mine. I want to work for a company whose mission is to enable its patients to enjoy long and healthy lives. Being the top-rated training facility for ten consecutive years shows your dedication to your employees. I want to prepare for a leadership position and am excited you offer and encourage professional growth to everyone you employ."
"I want to work for your agency because of its excellent reputation. Two of my trusted former coworkers work at your agency now, and they've told me that the nursing leadership is transparent and open to feedback. You're also a leader in cardiac care in Indianapolis, and cardiac care is my favorite area of patient care."
