Screening

What to hire for

High-signal traits and interview signals that predict success in this specialty.

  • Anatomy fluency across foot/ankle, hand/wrist, and shoulder
  • Tray and implant logistics ownership (no missing trays, ever)
  • Surgeon-side coaching: techniques, sizing, and intra-op decisioning
  • ASC vs hospital fluency: contracting, capital, and case flow differences
  • Pipeline discipline across multiple low-volume, high-loyalty surgeons
  • Composure during long, complex cases

Strong signals in interviews

  • Walks through a recent extremities case with anatomy and instrument detail
  • Has a documented tray/loaner workflow with the SPD team
  • Talks about driving block-time growth, not just case-day attendance
  • Maps the full account: surgeon, scheduler, OR director, materials, SPD
  • Owns missed trays or sizing issues without blame
