Clincial Specialist Arterial Stryker help NYC area

Hey Guys,

I had a phone interview today with a recruiter that seemed to go OK with Stryker for potential Field Clincal Specialist in the Arterial space in NYC region ( i live in NJ, right across NYC). Was told next step of interview would be a group interview if it proceeds. Main products I was explained I would be involved in were LimFlow and Artix. Was told not a sales job (don't want sales job as of now) and mainly clinical helping in cases. Territory was all boroughs of NYC and long Island. ​pay was good at 130k and potentailly 40k bonus which is more than I make as a Nurse.

I'm an OR nurse with about 6 years of experience, I was a travel nurse in OR for 3 of those years. I have lots of experience in the endovascular space as most places I worked at as a circulator had hybrid rooms and most RNs disliked the endovasuclar space and would avoid those cases. I didn't mind and would constantly be in those cases, so I learned a lot about it.

I guess what I'm really asking is how is this role for the Arterial space as clincal specialist? I don't really know what the day to day looks like for this role or what the lifestyle is for the role. I asked during interview but didnt really get proper answer to that question. I don't want to be on call all the time and away from my family. ​I like the idea of not being in direct patient are but still being clincal.

Another dilemma ​is that I just got hired in an OR and going through the orientation process. This hospital is considered a great place to work from what I have heard and through word of mouth. I don't want to leave this job in a good OR for a job I might not even like the lifestyle. Just wanted to hear advice.​

Ps. I know I don't have the job yet
