Interview Details After your application is submitted, you will be asked a brief health questionnaire. Then you will have an interview (phone or in person) then a background and medical check. Once everything is clear then you will be placed to a specific country. Typically it takes six months but it could take up to 2 years.

Describe a time when you were uncomfortable/ unfamiliar with something, how did you handle it?   View Answer
