Have you ever faced an ethical dilemma in the workplace? If so, how did you handle it?

"In my current position, a colleague asked me to withhold important information about an audit from our leadership team, and I immediately squashed that idea with my colleague. Knowing that some of the information in the audit would reflect poorly on our department, I reiterated to her that the audit was to help seek improvement and that I would be bringing forward all information that day. I also expressed my disappointment that she would even ask. Thankfully, she apologized to me the next day for making that request and assured me it wouldn't happen again."

Before your interview, consider when your ethics were challenged on the job so you can speak openly about any relevant experiences you've had with this type of situation. You'll want to think carefully about your answer, as it will leave a strong impression. Your answer should highlight your ability to follow policies and do what is necessary to protect patients, staff members, and the organisation.
