About your past
Tell me about a time you taught someone a skill they were struggling with. How did you know they had it?
What they are checking: Whether they have real teaching experience and check for competence, not just explain.
How do you keep your own skills current while spending more time teaching than scanning?
What they are checking: Whether they stay credible as the lab's go-to resource for technique.
What would you do
How would you plan an echo conference that both sonographers and cardiologists find worth attending?
What they are checking: Whether they can design education for mixed audiences, since lectures and conferences are part of the job.
A physician tells you a student's images were not diagnostic on a study. How do you handle it with the student and the physician?
What they are checking: Whether they protect quality and patient care while supporting a learner's growth.
You'll float to other Endeavor sites and take call. How do you keep standards consistent across different labs?
What they are checking: Whether they can spread consistent protocols across sites with different equipment and habits.
About the work
A sonographer keeps getting poor apical views on larger patients. How would you coach them at the bedside?

Walk me through a complete adult transthoracic echo protocol and the measurements you'd never skip.
What they are checking: Whether their own scanning standard is strong enough to teach and enforce across the lab.
The posting strongly prefers pediatric echo. What's your pediatric experience, and how is scanning a child's congenital heart different?
What they are checking: Whether they can handle and teach pediatric echo, where anatomy and approach differ from adults.
What paperwork and quality steps does the lab need to stay in compliance with ICAEL accreditation?
What they are checking: Whether they understand accreditation requirements like case review, protocols and technical quality audits.
During a scan you see something that looks like a large pericardial effusion with signs of tamponade. What do you do?
What they are checking: Whether they recognize critical findings and escalate immediately instead of finishing the protocol.
