Most physiotherapists find more pros than cons to their profession. However, there are some, such as long hours, being on call, rules, regulations, physical demands, and rude patients. The interviewers want to hear what you like the least about being a physiotherapist to learn more about your personality. Be sure you briefly say what you like least, then end on a positive note by explaining how the other aspects of your profession outweigh the bad.

"My least favourite part of working as a physiotherapist is when I have patients that do not follow my treatment plan and do not understand why they are not getting better. When I have patients like this, I calmly explain that they need to do the exercises I prescribe in addition to meeting with me if they want to see improvement. Ultimately, I cannot take it personally as some individuals will not do what I or any other healthcare professional tells them to, even if it means improving their condition."
