I applied in-person. I interviewed at Senior Helpers (Jacksonville, FL)
Interview
Speak well, don't tell them that your experience is with your children-have real experience, pay for your level 2 background when hired, dont have long nails, bright colored hair, tattoos, etc-they will not hire you. You need experience, look the part, have open availability, and you'll be fine.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you describe your personality? A peacock, an owl, a dove or and an eagle? This is to match you with the clients personality needs.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Senior Helpers (Riverview, FL) in Oct 2015
Interview
It was pretty good and smooth, the hiring manager was really nice and helpful with the whole hiring process. First you have to complete an exam and then get your back ground check and then do a skills class, after that you can start working as a HHA. If you don't want to become HHA then you can just be a companion.
