How has your education and experience prepared you to succeed in our diverse work environment?

"I am thankful to have attended a medical school and residency program that were both highly conscious of their diversity efforts and inclusion programs. Coming from a small rural community, my first real exposure to working closely with individuals from around the world came during college. I've cherished working alongside and learning from people with different backgrounds and beliefs from me because it has opened my mind to new ways of doing things and new ways of thinking. I love that your institution values and puts so many resources into assuring that your workplace is inclusive for all people, and I would be proud to be a part of that."

Be prepared to discuss how your education, residency, and life experiences have helped you embrace the topics of diversity and inclusion in the workplace. Discuss your exposure to the topic of diversity in the workplace, show that you have a solid understanding of the depth of diversity and inclusion in the healthcare environment, and assure your interviewers that you will succeed in their diverse work community.
