Tips for my interview in a Nursing Home... Please x?

glamorous :)glamorous :)


I have an interview on Monday, for a "Health Care Assistant", In a nursing home. However, I don't have any previous experience in this whatsoever, not job related anyway. I am only 17 years old. They must be interested from the look of my CV otherwise they wouldn't call me in for an interview. Any tips on what to say etc in the interview, to up my chances of perhaps getting the job?

Before your interview ask yourself if this is a job you want or are you taking it because you need anything as long as a it has a pay check.

Nursing homes are very hard and very rewarding places to work. It takes patience and a respect for people who were once young and healthy and could take care of themselves but now need help. Can you be kind even when you feel your being unfairly picked on. Do you really like to be helpful? Are you easily upset by bodily functions? Can you let some wonderful people into you life? Can work weekends and holidays?

If you really want this job for the right reasons show up on time, wear a dress or skirt if you have one, Definitely don't wear shorts, tee shirts or sandals. Do not wear too much make up or perfume. They will ask you why you think you will be good in this job so give them sincere honest answers. They know everyone has to have a first job so do not be too nervous about that. Just be yourself and smile,
