What aspects of our institution interest you the most?

"As I embarked on a search for a new practice, there were a few key things that I was looking for, and I'm confident that I found them here. Number one was a focus on patient care. I don't want this focus to just be words on paper, but rather actual action in practice. From what I've heard from colleagues, you live that mission daily. The other main aspect I am seeking is innovation through research as I'm very motivated to advance our field through innovation, and I love the things your team is currently doing in research. It is a team that I would love to be a part of."

Think about two or three features of the institution that interest you and how the program can help you achieve your personal goals. Before your interview, thoroughly research the career site of the organization to read about their mission, values, and culture. More often than not, you can find a lot of great information on the website. Talk to your interviewer about how your values match those of the institution.
