I will have a council interview in this coming wed. I have worked in ABC childcare before, I dont really know how is the council interview would like ? does anyone working in the council can help me out? I am so nervous~~~~ and i cant find my certificate III and my first aid are expeire. what i can do ??

Clover - what is the council interview for? Do not be nervous, just be calm and answer the questions they ask the best that you can. I would advise that you try and find all your certificates, however if you cannot, contact whoever you did your Cert III through and say you need a replacement Certificate as you have lost yours, meanwhile they can write a letter to whoever you interview with stating that you have completed your Cert III.
As for your First Aid, tell them it has expired but you will be doing the course soon ... so I would also advise that you do that, as it means wherever you get a job they are not waiting for you to do the course.
Employers always prefer it if you have everything so are ready to start work asap.

Hope this helps.

thank you so much~ i have found my document, my position would be childcare assistant, just wondering what will be like of council interview. thanks again
