Pre-Committee Interview Questions


Directions: Please answer the following questions in the body of this Word document. Once completed, save and attach your responses in an email to healthadvising@temple.edu PRIOR to your committee interview. The file name should contain your last name (ex: SMITH PreCommQs). 1) What personal characteristics do you possess which will benefit you as a future health care provider? I am able to work independently on large projects, and have great communication skills with my coworkers at my previous job as a lab technician. I pay a great attention to detail while working with chemicals and materials in the laboratories I have worked in. However, I am not afraid to ask either my supervisor or lab instructor if I have any questions.

2) What have you done to express/test your interest in health care? I have volunteered at my local hospital over the last three summers and winter breaks in various departments such as a Physical Therapy office, In-Patient Pharmacy and a Cancer Center. I also worked in a engineering laboratory in order to get some field experience in a laboratory aside from the academic labs.

3) What accomplishments are you most proud of? One of my latest accomplishments that I am proud of is encouraging and helping a group of high school students from Kensington High School graduate and apply for college.

4) What is your knowledge on Health Care Reform? I am vaguely familiar with the recent Obamacare law that was passed. I do know that by next year, everyone not insured will be issued a fine, although I do not know the specifics of said fine. I do know that the U.S. spends a large sum of money on health insurance but is, supposedly, one of the worst in terms of quality, which I am hesitant to agree on since I have heard of horror stories from both sides of the argument.
