🙏 PLEASE RESPECT
My Christian faith (just mutual respect).
No swearing or taking the Lord’s name in vain in my home...thank you.
My love of Earl Grey Tea (bonus points if you can brew a cup 😁🫠☕️)
📋 BEFORE YOU APPLY, PLEASE ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS - The more you answer the faster the interview 🤪
Why should I hire you? Be creative, honest, and no "Mrs. Doubtfire" answers! haha. "I am...JOB!" 😆
Provide your email and phone number (Craigslist relay doesn’t always work)
How soon can you start? I need someone ASAP to shadow current caregivers (yes, it’s paid).
Can you pass a background check, LEIE/CSB screening, and drug screen? Unless you are an axe murderer...almost anything we can work through. 🤪
Have you read and understood everything so far? (There’s more at the interview.)
Once we get through the initial email, we’ll schedule an interview. If all goes well, the dog and I will talk about about you behind your back (professionally, of course 🙃🫡), and we’ll see if you’re the one.
So… what do you think?
Oh, I hire people, not paper. 😀 No resumes.
Are you ready to earn good money, make a difference, and work with a guy who still thinks “dad jokes” are an art form?
You may have seen my ad in the past and wondering what's going on. I am replacing a caregiver that was here for two years...and my other caregiver has been here over a year. If you have applied and I have not responded...please reply again...it could have went to SPAM or into the deep blue (or whatever color it is) 😀ethersphere!
I just need the right person. Although this is entry level and training is provided, I need a self-starter, eager to learn with common sense. There is nothing difficult... 😀 and I am incredibly easy and patient.
P.S. If this isn’t for you but you’re local to Medford, Oregon, would you please consider sharing this ad? I’d be incredibly grateful. Thank you.
WAIT! Why are you still reading? 😀 Click the contact button and lets meet to see if this is the perfect fit.
