Tell me about a time you showed initiative by taking the lead on a project during your career.

"With my current organization, I am a co-chair of our personnel committee. We oversee all physician employment matters, including hiring, discipline, and training matters. I was nominated for this co-chair role and have loved leading the efforts of our diverse committee. It requires a few extra hours of admin time per week, but I love dedicating time to bettering our hospital and clinic practice."

Describe any project or learning experience where you saw a chance to lead and took advantage of it. Talk about the success of the project and your biggest takeaway from the experience. This is a great time to talk about any formal experience leading various committees or groups in your current or former practices.
