"Having grown up in a rural farming community in a huge family, relating to people is how we entertained ourselves growing up, and this instilled a need for human contact in the career that I chose to pursue. I love working as part of a team where I find myself both willing to learn from others and provide education where I have a level of expertise. You'll also find that I am a great communicator and can work with patients with both empathy and patience."

"I am the type of person that works the best and performs to my peak when I am working as part of a larger team. Before becoming a Respiratory Therapist, I worked as a shuttle driver, where I spent many long nights by myself, and I quickly found out that wasn't the best field for me. In the healthcare setting as an RT, I love that I get to work with and communicate with patients, nurses, physicians, and fellow therapists daily, and this keeps me motivated to come back for more each day."

If you enjoy helping people and working with others, you are most likely a people person. Now you need to know how to talk about it. Explain how you enjoy working with others at work, whether with coworkers or patients, or both. Talk about the importance that others play in your sense of well-being. Your interviewer knows that to thrive in this position, you need to effectively work with a diverse group of people, and they will be looking for you to reiterate that.

"I do consider myself a people person. I enjoy working as a team because I learn so much from my coworkers. I like being able to support others and help out in any way I can. You can learn so much from people, especially your patients."
