Maturity is one of the top characteristics I hear host families mention, when speaking of what they are hoping for in their au pair! How do you know if the candidate your interviewing is mature? First you need to know what maturity is, it's someone who is thoughtful, grateful, considerate, self aware, independent and stays calm cool and collected under stress. No small order. So how do you go about judging maturity through a few Skype interviews? Do you just ask, are you mature? This wouldn't hurt, but my guess is, it won't be very insightful. As with any interviewing, situation based interviewing is one of the best models. As past behavior is one of the best indicators of future behavior. You also want to ask the question in multiple ways to give the au pair several chances to look at the question from multiple perspectives and think about it? Are their answers consistent? In this video we will review some great questions to help get out some key maturity information and get you closer to matching with a rockstar au pair!
