When an interviewer asks how you define success, they want to evaluate how you view success as it relates to you personally and in the workforce. Your response will give the interviewer insight into your work philosophy, professional development goals, and leadership skills. The interviewer wants to determine that if hired, you will fit in with the company culture and that your definition of success aligns with the company's mission. Describe how you define success and give an example based on your experience.

"I define success in many ways. Personally, success is meeting the goals I set forth for myself. At work, success is when my team and I have a successful surgery and everything goes as planned, and we meet the goals of the organization."
