Complex Interview Questions for Clinical Trial Coordinator Roles (answer my followers' comments)

QUESTION FROM A FOLLOWER OF MY CHANNEL WHO HAD A RECENT INTERVIEW FOR A CLINICAL RESEARCH COORDINATOR (CRC) ROLE:

Shamsher Sandhu:
"Here are my questions and they are far more complex and tricky than i ever imagined. I am still waiting for results.

Interview part I: 10 behavioral questions. They were manageable.

Part II. That's where I was kinda screwed. Three one page real trial scenarios each having 3 questions (virtual zoom call with screen share by the interviewer, I had to read the scenarios and tell the answers to questions that followed)

Examples
In a breast cancer trial a PI recommends a patient to the CRC. The patient is Her(-) and had her radiotherapy done previously (why it was relevant I dono). The schedule with CRC says one of her tests are to be done outside the site in another hospital/testing center.

question: Would a new ICF be required. If yes why if no why.
Should this patient be enrolled at all?

Scenario II: the PI recommends a cancer patient. Three inclusion criteria are met and they r listed there in scenario. The patient says she is fine with the first visit tomorrow and can come.
Question: what as a CRC u shud do. How will you manage this situation?
And more questions I dnt remember

Scenario III. U need to send for processing a tissue sample.

How wud u initiate the process. Before a patients visit what are the things you would consider most imp and what your preparation be like ??? "

Although I answered these questions I wasn't sure if they were correct. But for me some of these were very specific questions and I didn't know how to handle them. All in all not all CRC interviews are simple.
