Before your interview and even applying for the position, you've hopefully done your research on the compensation of the institution you are interviewing with. You want to be honest with yourself and a future potential employer as you answer this question, but you also need to ensure that you don't price yourself out of a job. This is where your prior research will come in handy.

"This potential move is not driven by compensation as I'm fairly compensated in my current role. While I'm currently compensated with a mix of salary and RVUs, I'm certainly open to your full salary compensation model because it better reflects considering patient needs above all else."
