How do you handle working with little to no supervision as an Anesthesiologist?

"I have the ability to think on my feet and make critical decisions on my own. In my current practice, I work in our critical access hospital's operating rooms. In these situations, I am away from my department chair and the typical surgeons I practice with. I am comfortable in my ability to make sound decisions on my own and communicate with teams I don't always work with."

Talk about a time you were very successful in your work, even when you lacked close supervision from someone in a position of authority. Then, finish your reply by asking the interviewer to describe the level of supervision that the Anesthesiologists with this team receive. It is your responsibility to ensure that the amount of support offered in this position aligns with your own needs. At the end of your response, emphasize your ability to work independently and explain how that will benefit the anesthesia team upon your hire.
