Whether you will be a brand new Band 7 nurse or are an experienced Band 7 nurse looking to join this operating theatre team, being open to and ready to participate in bigger work projects involving quality, patient care, and hospital administration will be important to your interviewer. This will be the time for you to further elaborate on any projects you have been involved with throughout your career, so take advantage of it. Some keys to impressing your interviewer will be to discuss what you learned from those teams and your future desire to help lead the department and institution to greater things.

"Yes, I certainly have! Over the last three years, I've been on our hospital's quality council and have been so happy to represent our entire nursing team. As part of this council, I work with administrative and consultant leaders on new initiatives for quality improvement regarding patient care. I'm a leader on this council who always gains insight from my nursing colleagues and brings issues and concerns to the table. My colleagues appreciate my openness and honesty, while also being flexible. I'm really looking forward to the chance to take on other projects and leadership council work as your next Band 7 theatre nurse."
