Interviews

Prior to a Face-to-Face interview you will have a Phone Screen interview with one of our Talent Acquisition Business Partners. This gives us the opportunity to learn more about you and what you are looking for. Our team will also provide you with details of the recruitment process and anticipated timeframes.

At Estia Health, we pride ourselves in matching the right person to the right job. To help us select the right person, interviews are an important part as they allow us to gauge how a person will perform their duties based on their prior behaviour in the workplace.

To prepare for an interview it is suggested that you:

  • Create a good first impression: groom for the occasion and act in a professional manner

  • Ensure you arrive on time and have prepared any documentation required from you

  • Take the time to understand the working environment of the home where the role will be based and or understand our support functions

  • Prepare for any likely questions you may be asked about the role

  • Think about the question before jumping to a response; structure your responses by describing the situation, what action you undertook and the result of your action.
