Laura Shick Posts: 1 4/8/2020	Laura Shick Posts: 1 There are 2 main parts to the "Interview": PART 1-We have decided to hold interviews two ways- letting the applicants choose which way he/she wants to do it. One way is for the applicant to prepare a pre-recorded video, answering interview questions and submitting that to the selection committee with a short phone chat with that applicant after the video is reviewed by the committee. The applicant will be able to use photos, written answers, a whiteboard and help from a trusted person to coach them through it or any other accommodation. The second way is for the applicant to arrange a Live Zoom or FaceTime Interview with the selection committee. The applicant will have 10 questions the committee will give ahead of time. The applicant can use the same accommodations. PART 2- The applicants will do a pre-recorded Skills Assessment. They will be given 5 skills tasks and directions for each. They will choose 2 of the skills tasks to execute and record and send to the committee. The 5 skills tasks are: Clerical-alphabetizing folders; Patient Services-addressing, folding and stuffing envelopes to patients; Environmental Services-Wiping a table, putting on gloves; Nutrition-Setting a table to a specific diagram; Patients beds-Making a bed at home. edited by laura.shick@nationwidechildrens.org on 4/8/2020

I really appreciate that you are creating multiple options so that applicants with technology access or other challenges can participate in a way that will work for them.
