  • Establish and maintain respectful relationships with individuals, promoting independence and personal choice.
  • Foster community participation and develop links between the service and the local community.
  • Complete Core HR reporting weekly, log incidents on QMIS in a timely manner, and submit all required reports.
  • Liaise with families, multidisciplinary teams, and external agencies with tact and professionalism.
  • Ensure effective safeguards are in place for residents' personal finances and accounts.
  • Undertake driving duties in service vehicles or own transport as required.

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
