The work consists of both patient visits and group treatments at the clinic, as well as home visits. The main tasks include rehabilitation for stress-related ill health, fitting of assistive devices, hand rehabilitation, and home adaptations.

About the Recruitment Process

Selection takes place in two steps. The first selection is made by recruiters in the HR department who invite candidates to a phone interview. After the application period, the hiring manager makes a second selection of the applicants and invites them to an interview at the clinic.

We use competency-based interviews, which means that answers to 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 that we can understand the situation, why you acted as you did, and what the result was.
