The interviewer wants to gain a better understanding of your experience as a personal assistant. Simply share the number of clients you have worked with who have disabilities, the type of disability they have, as well as how long you worked for the client. Be sure to give a high-level overview of the tasks you helped the person with. If you have no experience professionally assisting individuals with disabilities, that is okay! Instead, think of a person in your life with a disability who you have assisted at some point in time. Share that you have not professionally assisted someone with a disability, and explain the other point in your life when you have been able to offer your assistance.
