Strange Question

This is a strange question but I’d be grateful for your input.  I am an RN and am scheduled for an interview tomorrow for an infusion nurse position.  The Hr department have advised me that as part of the interview process I will be required to start an IV on the hiring manager.  I was somewhat taken aback with that knowledge and wonder if anyone else had encountered such a request.

    This is one weird request! (I suppose if you really want the job you can always IVP something good...)

    That sounds unconventional but I like it. A nurse in an infusion clinic must be good at starting IVs. Remember to grab a warm compress and allow the alcohol to dry entirely. They may be watching to see you following protocols. Good luck!

    That is a strange request! Did you get the job?

    It happened to me years ago. For an IV nurse in a chelation clinic.

    I learned how to start an IV on my classmates in EMT-I school. I thought it would be the same in nursing school, it wasn’t.
