Answer:
“This is one of my newest favorites [among nurse interview questions],” she explained.
“While there aren’t exactly right and wrong answers to this question, I am looking for someone with values that are either shared by our current team or which will augment our current team. If their values are really different, they wouldn’t enjoy the team any more than we would enjoy working with them.”
Bryant reflected that if the candidate answered this nurse interview question by only mentioning superficial things, it could sway her opinion.
She also noted that candidates should have the same concerns about what values are promoted and upheld in the workplace of their potential employer.
“I would suggest that candidates ask this question of the people interviewing them, to find out if they think the team is a good fit for them,” she added.
