Teamwork is the heart of the OR. When it's functional, and everyone is clicking together as if with one mind, extraordinary things can be accomplished. In a peer interview, I might ask a candidate "give us an example of how you have pulled a team together in a difficult patient care situation."
Don't go to the interview in scrubs or casuals, wear a power suit, even if you feel overdressed, you will also feel powerful and put together. Don't let them see you sweat, have your list of questions ready so you don't have to fumble trying to remember them.
My other important advice: Never drink a large latte before a long case.
Good luck on your interview. Don't be nervous, you'll do great.
