      Why the Interviewer Asks This Question

      Radiation therapists have close working relationships with the doctors at their practice. They will rely on you to provide the best client care during treatment and to manage patient information. Trust comes with time and experience. Describe your relationship with the physician you spent the most time with during your clinicals. Or, if you have experience working directly under a doctor in a work setting, talk about how you nurtured that relationship. This question is not the time to bad mouth or criticize any past physicians. Remember - it's a very small world, and you don't want to end up putting your foot in your mouth!
