As an Activity Director, part of your responsibilities will be to supervise, hire, and train staff. You may also be required to assist the Nursing Supervisor with managing their team. Explain how many years of experience you have supervising staff, and describe your leadership style. The interviewer wants to see that you have the leadership skills and experience they are looking for in a candidate.

"I have five years of supervisory experience as an Activity Director at my previous facility. My duties included hiring and firing staff, training new and current employees, writing performance reviews, updating the manual of operations, and assisting the Nursing Manager with managing her staff. I was also in charge of supervising volunteer staff when we had a volunteer program."
