23. Which level of CPR certification do you possess? Is your certification current and valid?
How to Answer
Be sure to bring a physical copy of your CPR certification with you, and offer the interviewer to take a scan or photocopy. Before your interview, ensure that your certification is still valid. If your card is expired or expiring in the next 90 days, you should have a plan for re-certification. Keep your response simple and to the point.

1st Answer Example
"I have a CPR -A certification which is valid for the next six months. I have already registered to take a CPR-B course in June. It's important to me that I continue to grow my knowledge in CPR and emergency protocols. If you would like, I have my current certificate with me, and you can take a copy for my file."
