Job Application FAQ's

Questions & answers for career opportunities at Pacekids.

As you might imagine, our hiring process has changed slightly as a result of the COVID-19 virus. We are committed to keeping both you and our hiring teams as safe as possible, so here is what you can expect during these times:

  • Applications continue to be online, so please visit our career portal to view our current opportunities and apply to join our team today!
  • If you are selected for an interview, a member of the hiring team will contact you to schedule a phone interview to further discuss the position as well as your skills and experience.
  • Successful candidates would then move on to a formal interview with one or more members of the hiring team. Currently, these interviews are being conducted via Zoom. Prior to your interview, the team will be sure to send you any important information regarding the virtual interview. We recommend familiarizing yourself with Zoom ahead of time as well as locating an appropriate area to set yourself up for the call (backgrounds that are a solid colour, or that are not too distracting are the best to showcase you!)
  • One of the final steps in our hiring process is to conduct reference checks. If you have advanced to this step, you will be asked to provide references we can speak to on your behalf.
  • Finally, if you are the successful candidate, you will receive a formal offer of employment via email to review and sign via DocuSign!

Please note, the hiring process may take longer than normal during these times given busier workloads for many of our staff. We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding!
