Review the job announcement before your interview and highlight the keywords of the qualities, experience, and education the agency seeks in a Hospice Social Worker. Then, focus on those keywords in your response. The interviewer will see that you are a highly qualified candidate and place you high on the candidate list.

Many qualified candidates are interviewing for the same position. Avoid speaking negatively of the other candidates or sounding arrogant when responding to this question. You want to sell yourself in the interview, but don't give the interviewer the impression that you will be a challenging person to work with.
