QUESTION 23 OF 30

How do you assess a client's abilities and work-readiness?

"I think it is important to review the client's history. I evaluate their mental health, past work experience, what medical professionals they have and currently work with and what has brought them to my office. Evaluating the client's past history helps me determine their abilities and work readiness."

Walk the interviewer through your intake process. What questions do you ask your client? What history do you ask your client? How do you document and determine what your client is capable of and willing to work? Tell the interviewer that you also take family member and medical professionals suggestions into consideration as well.

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.
