Advice and answer examples written specifically for a Personal Trainer job interview.
23. Are you CPR certified?
How to Answer
Most gyms and fitness centers require their trainers to be CPR certified. They may hire you contingent upon the completion of your CPR training if you are not currently certified. If you have not taken a CPR course, you might want to consider signing up for one now. Working with clients in a fitness setting means there could be a risk of heart attack or another health issue that would require CPR knowledge. Be sure to find out if your gym requires it, and take the course!
