Comment on if you're offered a position you can use to advance your career but it involves people without boundaries, do you tell your maybe-future-to-be manager you don't want to work with those people?

There’s no scenario where I would bring this to a manager. If you aren’t capable of (politely!) setting your own boundaries with your coworkers, you’re going to struggle no matter what team you land on.

I suspect, given this is a medical setting, the hiring manager has more important things to worry about than “are people taking near the new person again?”

If you came to me with that demand before hiring I would thank you for your time and wish you luck finding a position that meets your needs. I have my own shit to deal with, training new team members is already an additional load to take on, and having to manage personalities full-time is not in my bandwidth

  It’s called getting along with others. And like it or not, will be expected of you at any job that doesn’t involve you working alone. Quite honestly, you’re the issue here, not your co-workers. Figure out your personal strategy for dealing with extroverts, or look for a job as a warehouse night security guard.

  Yup, you pointed that out, but in OP’s scenario - they would be the boss. You are not the boss, you need to be a team player. Work on your engagement skills or be honest with your coworkers, don’t drag your boss into managing this type of thing. They’ll see it as incompetent behavior most likely and most likely they won’t see it the way you are hoping for.
