About the Job

Your tasks at the BVC are varied; you will follow children and their guardians from newborn until school health care takes over. You have a central role in meeting families' needs, making medical and nursing assessments and priorities, conducting health checks, and providing vaccinations. You work health-promoting, advisory, and treatment-oriented both via phone, home visits, digital health meetings, and at the clinic.

Collaboration occurs in interdisciplinary teams at the health center, and cooperation also takes place with external care providers such as preschools, schools, family centers, and specialist healthcare. Educating future colleagues is an important and rewarding part of our mission, so supervising students is also included in your role at the health center.

About the Recruitment Process

The selection is done in two steps. The first selection is made by recruiters in the HR department who invite candidates to a phone interview. Then the recruiting manager makes a second selection of the applicants and invites them for an interview at the health center.

We use competency-based interviews, which means that the answers to the questions should be based on actual situations. It is important that you describe as concrete situations as possible and try to avoid generalized answers – this is so we can understand the situation, why you acted as you did, and what the outcome was.
