1st Answer Example
"I think the biggest challenge for me would be learning a different patient demographic. This clinic serves a very large Hispanic population due to the location, so learning their needs and trying to learn Spanish will be a challenge, but it's one I'm sure will reap great rewards."

2nd Answer Example
One major challenge that I have experienced when starting a position as a new nurse manager is getting buy in from the unit staff.
