I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at The Y (YMCA) (Canberra) in June 2021
Interview
Casual, relaxed interview with some behavioural questions which were unseen but relatively common, but also a chance for the Centre Manager to get to know you, before explaining operations, policies and rostering.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Tell us about a time you have had to think on your feet in a fast-paced situation.
very good. good people there who work there and i like to work there because it is very fun being outside and talking with good people and free popsicles and the interviewer was nice and respectful and all oof that.
The interview process was overall easy. You just need to have your certifications, you need to pass a breathing test, and you need to pass a swim test. Pretty easy interview.
Swim test and basic questions. Very chill and conversational. Gave me introduction to their different systems and showed me how to change my hours and look for cover. I recommend wilting here!
