Background
Generation Hong Kong is constantly providing education to employment services to different underserved populations in HK. The Guardians of the Silver Age project aims to redefine care and foster a compassionate eldercare ecosystem in Hong Kong. The program is comprised of training including innovative gerontechnology, on-the-job advice, mentorship, and alumni support components. It centers not only on the technical proficiency of the learners upon graduation, but also on their behavioral and mindset change in the process, offering them a holistic and compassion-based point of view in the value of their role towards enabling the wellbeing of older adults, and bringing peace of mind to their daily lives.In order to better prepare our learners to join the eldercare industry after 8 weeks of training, we are now recruiting skilled volunteers to help conduct mock interviews so the learners can gain confidence and have higher chance of success in the actual job interview.
What we have
CVs, mock interview flow, question bank, evaluation form and rubrics will be provided by our team.
Why this is important
The mock interview will familiarise the learners with the typical interview settings, so that they could become more confident in a real-life eldercare job interview session. The job role might vary from elderly home, day-care centre, integrated services, etc. The interviewer will encourage and empower interviewee to respond effectively. Through providing constructive feedbacks, our learners will be able to advance their skills in presenting themselves and responding to interview questions in a precise manner. We hope this could help our graduates get into the industry and become the change agents driving towards a compassion-based eldercare ecosystem.

What we do
Worldwide, more than 75 million young people are unemployed. But many employers can’t find people with the skills they need for entry-level jobs. Generation is an independent nonprofit founded in 2014 by McKinsey & Company that transforms education to employment systems to prepare, place, and support people into life-changing careers that would otherwise be inaccessible. In 2018, Generation Hong Kong was formally established to bring Generation’s proven approach to addressing employment challenges to Hong Kong. To date, more than 117,000 people have graduated from Generation programs globally, which prepare them for meaningful careers in 17 countries.
