How To Apply for a Role at Step Up
Are you ready to apply for a role at Step Up? Amazing! The application process is very straightforward…
You can choose to either apply online through our website or complete and return the application materials to us at our email address. Everything you need for this will be within each of our vacancy posts!
Step 1 – Complete the Application Pack
The Application & Declarations Forms require you to disclose common questions such as your experience, role suitability, and why you should be chosen for the job.
We love to build the Step Up team with people who share our values – these are detailed on our website! As well as those who can demonstrate how both their experience and skillset will help them be a great Support Worker.
Step 2 – Interview & Screening
After we have reviewed your application, you will be notified if you have been successful.
If so, you will be invited for a competency-based interview followed by a short screening process. There will also be a 30-minute written exercise for you to complete.
Step 3 – Pre-employment Checks
The next step will be pre-employment checks, including contacting your references and conducting a PVG (Protecting Vulnerable Groups) check to ensure you are eligible to work with vulnerable groups.
Step 4 – Job Offer
Once your pre-employment checks have been completed, you will be given a formal job offer and a contract of employment. We will provide you with a full two-week induction in order for you to meet the team and learn all about our systems & processes.
You will be paired with other members of staff to shadow their work and be paired with a mentor to help you learn more about the role. After these two weeks, you’ll be itching to get going!
