Tell me about a time you made a mistake or near-miss. What did you do about it?
What they are checking: Whether they report errors openly and learn from them, which is critical with high-risk drugs.
What outpatient oncology or infusion experience do you have, and what would you need to learn here?
What they are checking: Whether they are honest about their skills and ready to grow in a specialized outpatient setting.
What would you do
A patient's labs come back and the ANC is low, but they really want treatment today. What do you do?
What they are checking: Whether they hold treatment pending the oncologist's decision and handle the patient's disappointment kindly.
You're running behind and a patient in the waiting room is upset. How do you handle it?
What they are checking: Whether they communicate honestly about delays and keep the patient experience in mind on a busy day.

What they are checking: Whether they can manage several chairs and long infusions at once while keeping patients on time and safe.
Walk me through how you access a port and what you check before using it.

What they are checking: Whether they verify dose, cycle and parameters independently instead of trusting that the order is right.
A patient on immunotherapy tells you about new diarrhea that started last week. How do you respond?
