I want this job!

Published

I work as a CNA at a hospital that no longer hires LPN's so I am looking into transferring somewhere that would hire me as a CNA and later on possibly transition to the LPN role. I found the perfect position (PPEC center) within the same hospital that can offer what I am looking for but they are having doubts because I have no child care experience :(. I know they want someone with experience and theres so much that I can offer but how do I put it into words?

No child care experience? Ever?

Did you ever babysit, take care of siblings, any thing like that?

I do! I currently lead the children's ministry, Ive been engaging with kids for about 10 years. But they want someone with special needs experience.

Specializes in LTC, Memory loss, PDN.

can you play up your track record

I'm thinking something like,

"I know you're looking for experience, but you're always taking

a bit of a chance with someone new - I didn't have much experience

when you hired me for (present unit), but i believe my supervisor

would tell you I quickly became a valuable team member"
