"The first thing I do in order to start a full body examination is to put on my PPE. I weigh and measure the body, noting the subject's clothing, valuables, and patient characteristics for my report."

This is a great question to be able to walk the interviewer through a day in your shoes. Tell the interviewer that you perform full-body assessments with the attending physician by examining, describing and recording external identification marks of the deceased body such as height, weight, hair and eye color, scars, deformations, blemishes, etc. You work well as a team to get the job done quickly as you are on a short timeline.
