Recruitment Process

Child's Perspective in Recruitment

At Storsjöbygdens Personliga Assistans, we strictly follow the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. This means that if you apply for a position involving work with minors, the recruitment process will include specific steps to ensure the child's wishes and needs are taken into account. Employment involving minor clients also includes training on the child's perspective.

Employment Terms

If you proceed in the recruitment process, you will need to verify your identity and prove that you have the right to work in Sweden. To sign your employment contract and timesheets, you must have a BankID.

To ensure high quality in assistance, new employees will undergo a web-based introductory training (approx. 1 hour), preferably before employment starts but no later than one month from the start date.
