"I am very confident that the clinical strengths I have developed throughout my care in both the inpatient hospital units and outpatient pediatric clinic make me a great fit for this role as a registered nurse in your pediatric critical care unit. But I would have to say that my greatest strengths for this role are my patience and my composure. I pride myself on not getting rattled when a clinical situation turns bad, but rather focus hard on my tasks at hand and get the job done."
