Is it legal for me to drive a rental car rented by a company that I’m interviewing with?
My drivers license is restricted to operating only a vehicle equipped with an ignition interlock device. With the exception taken directly from my Ignition Interlock Restriction Notice “however, you may operate an employer’s vehicle without an ignition interlock device installed during normal business activities”.

Good question. If your driver's license has been retsricted with respect to an ignition interlock device as to your own vehicle, your own vehicle must at all times have the device upon it when you drive it.
However, if the there is an exception to the use of this device with an employer's vehicle being used by you during normal business activities, then you can drive your employer's vehicle for business puposes without the device.
If you have a probation officer, I suggest that you contact him or her to confirm permission to use the employer's vehicle without the ignition interlock device.
Good luck.
