Job interview
Hi everyone!
I'll have a job interview on Wednesday, and I need your help. My interviewer sent me some questions and topics that we would will be discussing in during the interview.
Can you help me with the mistakes?
These are the questions:
"1) Do you understand the job role you are applying for?
- Yes. I read the Domicialiary Care Statement of Purpose and I think I have a pretty clear idea about the job.
2) Moving to the UK and being away from friends and family is a big commitment. May I ask why you feel this is right for you?
- Well, in Spain there's a lot of unemployment. It's difficult to find a good job. Moving to another country is an option you have to consider.
I really like to working with people and helping them to be in maintain a state of well-being state. That's why I studied Social Work.
I know being away from my family and friends it could be a little hard at the begining, but it's something I really want to do.
3) What skills do you feel you have that would make you a good Social Care Worker?
- I have empathy. I'm an active and responsible person. I have initiative. I'm respectful. I can communicate assertively, and I'm patient and understanding.
Also I have some professional skills thanks to my education, like the ability to identify needs, analyze conflict stituations or conflict resolution.
4) Have you had much experience with challenging behaviour?
- No, not much really.
I've been taking care of my grandmother with my mother for several years. She has Alzheimers, and she has gone through times when she had behavioral changes. Sometimes she was aggressive; sometimes she was sad. I learned a lot from this experience.
Last summer, I was working worked in a hospital caring for with an elderly person with autism.
But this is all of my experience with challenging behaviour.
5) Are you able to provide us with copies of your certificates?
- Yes, of course."
Thank you!
