By , About.com Guide

When you're interviewing for a nurse position, you'll be asked about your skills and experience, your training, and your interests. Review sample answers for the job interview question "How has your training prepared you for the challenges you will face in this position?"

  • I had an internship position at an Oncology Center after graduating last May, which gave me hands on experience with patients, and I am anxious to pursue my career specializing in cancer treatment.
  • My clinical training in the ER of City Hospital prepared me for the fast paced care required of an ER Nurse.
  • I had the opportunity to work as a research assistant for Dr. Zane, who was writing about new findings in the treatment of heart disease when I was working at City Hospital. The knowledge I gained during that time prepared me for assisting with cardiac patients in a more effective way.
