Over the phone interview to see if this position is a good fit. Then had to get first aid & cpr cards, tb test, fingerprint clearance card, caregiver test along with in person interview. Then orientation, safety education & photo

I went in the first day after they found my application on Indeed and did a paper CNA exam (which apparently isn't to see if you pass but rather to get a feel of your common sense as a care giver + they go over the answers with you later), filled out another very lengthy application, and filled out client preferences (can you work with people who smoke? who have cats? etc.) before I was ushered into the back room for an interview. The questions were very concise, no B S. She said she liked the answers I gave very much and we walked to the next room to find out the next orientation date which happened to be two days later. Orientation: In the morning I was a little bit concerned about taking a urine test for drugs because I had taken a trip to California in the spring and had...well a good time with some of their legal greenery. There is no urine test. Instead they made me do an oral exam where I sucked on a sponge; this method is good to test marijuana use for A FEW DAYS PRIOR which means I was in the clear. During orientation, the pleasant woman that interviewed me told us more about the job, gave us packets and packets of information, and when we were finished invited us one by one into her office for short term scheduling. I was scheduled to work two days later. Altogether a pleasant experience.
