Are you comfortable being in the operating room, overseeing surgeries, and providing guidance to physicians for extended periods of time if required?

There are two parts of this question you want to touch on in your answer: your ability to watch the gore of surgery and your ability to manage the length of surgeries.

Make sure you are clear in your response. If you have any experience either in surgery or providing medical care, bring that up! Concerning the length of time required, provide examples of any relevant professional experiences that involve flexible hours or overtime to finalize a deal.

Avoid being too descriptive in your answers about the surgeries. You do not need to provide detailed examples of all of the gruesome injuries or surgeries that you've seen. In fact, doing so will likely come off as unprofessional! Instead, simply name the longest or most difficult procedure you have overseen or helped with and let that speak for itself!

"Very! In my last role, I worked with surgeons during operations often to advise on best practices for implantations on both our knee and hip products. It's my goal to be with each doctor during their first use of a new product at the very least."

"I'm actually unsure about that. It's not something I've ever done before. I wasn't aware that was a part of the job since I had expressed interest in your physical therapy devices. In my experience, those are typically used in rehabilitation post-op. I have watched many physical therapy sessions with some lasting as long as six hours."
