Are you interviewing for a position that works with a population you haven't worked with before? No worries, this could be your chance to provide input with a new set of eyes. Conversely, if you have a preferred population that you prefer to work with or have expertise with, let the interviewer know.

I don't have a particular type of population that I like working with. As long as I can offer my services to an individual who needs physical therapy, then I would be excited to be a part of his rehabilitation process. Also, I believe that having to work with patients from different age groups and deal with a plethora of conditions would make my work more challenging and help me grow as a professional.
