Before applying to the NHS, you most likely researched the organization to ensure it is where you want to work. The interviewers want to see that you were diligent and did your homework before applying, or at least before your interview. They want to see what you found interesting about the NHS and what made you pursue a career with the UK's largest employer. In your response, it is always good to highlight any accolades the NHS has received in the news, awards they have won, expansions they have made, or the NHS's core values, mission, and vision. Let the interviewers know why you are excited to work for their organization after learning what you did in your research.

"During my research, I discovered the NHS is the largest employer in the UK and the fifth largest in the world, employing over 1.5 million people across Wales, England, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. The NHS was launched on July 5th, 1948, by former Health Secretary Aneurin Bevan, who believed society could not be civilized if a sick person were denied medical care because of a lack of means. Currently, the NHS sees over 1 million patients every 36 hours, which I find astonishing and impressive."
