First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at JCCA.
Residential Counselor
The hiring process begins with an interview with HR, then you meet with a group of supervisors. After that, you'll do drug and background checks, including fingerprinting. Once those are done, you have to complete a TCI class and if you pass that, you're officially hired. The whole thing takes about a month.
- What makes you want to work with children?
Case Manager
Had a standard interview with my future supervisor where they explained their expectations for the role and the difficulty of the work. It was very informative. I think it's good to be interviewed by the potential supervisor rather than a recruiter because it allows both parties to get a feel for who they'll be working with. I also think it's advantageous for the actual supervisor to talk to you and get a sense of your personality and abilities.
- In what ways would your past work experience be beneficial for this role?
Social Worker
This was a competitive interview process. There were 4 rounds in total, all conducted over ZOOM. They wanted to know about my experience working with minority populations and asked me to describe times I've dealt with clients in crisis. Honestly, the overall process wasn't too hard.
- What are your thoughts on the reasons for poverty?
- Describe a time you had a conflict with a supervisor and how you resolved it.
- What are your hobbies or what do you do in your free time?
Service Provider
The interviewer was friendly. If you have the relevant experience, you'll get the job. The organization requires drug testing and fingerprinting. Due to high turnover, it's hard to get follow-ups and support when things get tough.
- Tell me about your past experiences.
- Do you have experience relevant to this role?
