QUESTION 9 OF 25

Share an experience in which you successfully led others in a coordinated recreation activity.

As a recreation worker at a summer camp or a nursing home, you'll have to be able to coordinate recreation activities. The interviewer wants to know about one you ran that was successful and why.

You can talk about the program itself but you also need to talk about why it was engaging for the group and how you kept the group engaged.

"I had just started at a nursing home and the person who normally ran Bingo was out sick. I was thrown in to running the program for the evening, thankfully this was a planned program that happened weekly, so the engagement came from the regular crowd. I've since run programming and found that consistently with a schedule has helped with getting the group engaged."
