What interested you in becoming a nurse associate?
The interviewer wants to learn more about why you chose the healthcare industry and, more specifically, the nursing path as a career. This question is very personal, so briefly give the interviewer some insight into what motivated you to pursue becoming a nurse associate. Perhaps you interacted with a nurse in the past, and that interaction led to your decision, or maybe you have family or friends who have been nurses, and they inspired you. If you have a unique story that led to your decision, feel free to share that and give a meaningful answer demonstrating your passion for the field.
"Growing up, my mother was a registered nurse, so I was introduced to healthcare and nursing from an early age. I loved to hear the stories my mom would tell about the interesting cases she would see in Accident and Emergency and the impact she had on patients through her interactions and care. In secondary school, I discovered my own interest in healthcare as I began volunteering at the local hospital. I loved working with people of all ages and really went above and beyond to create a positive experience for patients that came into the facility. I decided to pursue a career in nursing and just recently completed my nurse associate program."
