The Location:

Interviews are by Zoom video. The employer will contribute towards your transportation to their location if you get the job.

Process:
1. Fill out an application. You will move on to the next stage if you meet the job requirements.
2. Pass an 8-question phone screening interview with us. 
3. Submit 2 live-in care references that we can verify. If your live-in references are both very strong, you will move on to the next stage. 
4. Have a Zoom interview with the family's recruiter. They are working to find the top 3 candidates for our client to interview. 
5. Directly interview the family via Zoom. This is your time to shine and to ask questions about their specific needs and desired live-in schedule. 
6. If they choose you, you will get a written job offer to consider.  If you accept, you will need to move in with them by the start date (usually 2 weeks after being hired)

We do not employ or co-employ any live-in. We are 3rd party recruiters that specialize in fulfilling long-term live-in positions with families. The family is the employer and pays you directly through a payroll service. All pay is on the books as a W2 employee. You negotiate all terms/schedules/duties/pay with the family, not us.
