Interviewers often ask this question first to break the ice and start the conversation. Take a few minutes to tell the interviewers about yourself, demonstrating essential skills and characteristics that are valuable in your role as a radiographer.

Taking the past, present, and future approach in your response is recommended. You want to mention how you started down your career path, what steps you have taken to get to where you are now, and your future goals. Be sure to highlight any promotions or achievements you are proud of and any other work-related accomplishments. You can mention extracurricular activities you are interested in, family life, or volunteer work if it ties in with the qualities needed for the job, showing you are a responsible and dedicated individual.

"Yes, of course. I am an only child of parents working in healthcare, so it has always seemed a natural fit for me to do the same. I started with the NHS as a volunteer patient companion and discovered my fascination with imaging tools. I started working as a radiography assistant while attending Bangor University to obtain my degree in radiography, then immediately started working as a radiographer for the same company. I enjoyed my time at Bangor and continued with the master's program in neuroimaging. I have three years of experience as a radiographer and have decided I want to finish my career with the NHS. I am excited to have worked my way up through the bands and look forward to working in a leadership position training new radiographers."
