The interviewers want to hear your reasons for choosing this profession to understand what inspired and motivated you to pursue a career as a radiographer. They want to hear if another radiographer mentored you, if you have family or friends who work in healthcare, or if you had an excellent experience with a radiographer.
Focus on giving your personal reason for choosing this career, responding with enthusiasm and passion. There is no right or wrong answer. The interviewers want to gain insight into what made you pursue this career path to see if you will be a good fit for their organization.

"I knew I wanted a career working in healthcare but was not sure in what capacity. I chose to pursue a career as a radiographer after researching the roles most involved with technology and direct patient care. The radiographer position utilizes my hard and soft skills and seemed like the best fit for me. I love that I have direct patient care and that my work helps diagnose and monitor diseases and injuries so patients can receive high-quality care to address their condition."
