First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Five Star Senior Living.
Receptionist
The interview included some fair, basic questions about working with seniors daily, your ability to work a flexible schedule, your thoughts on being a team player, and if you're willing to take on extra assignments when asked.
- How do you feel about working with the senior population every day?
- Can you commit to a flexible work schedule?
- What's your perspective on being a team player?
Administrative Assistant
I got a call from Janet Hansen (Executive Director) for an interview after I applied a few weeks prior. I then had an interview with the ED and Leah DeCicco, the Sales Director. After that, I was supposed to meet with Rita Paul (HR/Business Office) for a follow-up. Rita wasn't available then, so Janet gave me her card and told me to call if I didn't hear from Rita within a week. I called and left a message since I didn't hear back, but I haven't heard anything from Janet, Leah, or Rita.
- Can you introduce yourself?
Memory Care Director
I went through a two-step interview process. First, I had a virtual interview with the national director. Then, I had an in-person interview with the building's Executive Director. It was a formal setting, but I felt comfortable throughout.
- Are you looking for a long-term position?
- Are you someone who embraces challenges?
Activities Assistant
The hiring manager was really nice and asked me about my past work, what I'm good at, and what I can do. She told me what she needed regarding hours and skills. She also gave me the job description so I knew exactly what the job involved.
- Can you tell me about your availability?
- What experience do you have?
- What skills do you possess?
