Choose the right perspective
Check whether the person's relevant role is current or past and whether it covered a whole company's IT or one area such as infrastructure, enterprise applications or IT planning. Match that scope and era to your decision, and ask them for one system choice they owned and what they would change about it.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01Walk me through an internal system you chose for a veterinary organization. Which alternatives did you rule out, and why?
- 02How did you manage integration and cutover risk when a system change reached many hospitals or practices at once?
- 03Which system was hardest to support as the organization added locations, and what would you do differently?
