I'm looking at interviewing within the next few months. My question concerns BP limits during the medical portion of the hiring process.
Although I run 22 - 24 miles per week, don't smoke, eat healthy (low sodium, high fiber diet) rarely drink and height to weight proportion is well within limits (6'3", 175 lbs), I get a little antsy when my blood pressure is taken, i.e., around 133/82. My normal resting pulse is around 46 - 48 yet it'll jump into the upper 80's once the cuff is strapped on. Are numbers like this a show stopper for the medical portion of the hiring process?
Thanks for any info!
