Apply for care jobs through Facebook

Jobseekers from the Welshpool area can use Facebook to apply for positions at a leading care provider in the country where no experience is necessary as full free training is provided.

Abacare says it is making the search to find a job easier for those who are time poor and it is looking for kind, compassionate and caring individuals to join its team.

Neil Griffiths, Regional Manager at the award-winning Abacare, which provides care across Welshpool, said: “In this fast-paced, modern world, many people don’t often have the time to sit down and create a CV or fill in a traditional job application form, so we’re making the job application process much easier by allowing jobseekers to contact us via social media about positions and have a casual chat with us.

“They can drop us a message via our Facebook page (http://bit.ly/2PgKK2K) if they’re interested in the care industry and believe they’ve got what it takes to be a carer. We’ll discuss why they think they’re right for a position and what they can offer, and we’ll also tell them all about us and what a career in care is like. It will be very relaxed and chatty.

“While potential candidates are on our social media pages, they’ll be able to get an insight into what working for us is like as we post regular internal news and behind-the-scenes updates about staff and service users. We also run monthly competitions for staff in order to reward effort and progress. We have created a real online hub for people to interact with each other and job seekers can get a real feel for what the team is like.”

Potential candidates will receive a response via social media and may be invited for an interview.
