Right at Home is looking for a confident, people-focused professional to lead the interview and onboarding experience for caregivers in our Northwest Indiana home-care practice.

This is not a sourcing-heavy recruiting role. This is a decision-making and conversion role where you meet candidates, assess fit, and guide them into a successful start with our team.

You will own the most critical moments in the hiring process: the interview, the offer, and the transition into onboarding ensuring we bring in caregivers who are not only qualified, but aligned with how we care for our clients.

If you are energized by meeting people, making hiring decisions, and setting others up for success from day one, this role is for you.

What You’ll Do

  •  Conduct final virtual and in-person interviews with caregiver candidates 
  •  Evaluate candidates for experience, professionalism, reliability, and cultural fit
  •  Make confident hiring decisions and extend same-day offers when appropriate 
  •  Clearly communicate job expectations, scheduling realities, and role requirements
  •  Guide candidates through the hiring process from interview to offer acceptance
  •  Coordinate and prepare candidates for orientation and onboarding
  •  Ensure a smooth transition into the onboarding process (no drop-off between “yes” and day one) 
  •  Partner with Client Care to understand what “great” looks like for each type of client
  •  Collaborate with Client Services to ensure new hires align with scheduling needs
  •  Support early success by tracking new hires through their first 90 days
What We’re Looking For

  •  2+ years of experience in interviewing, hiring, staffing, customer service, healthcare, or home care
  •  Strong ability to read people, ask the right questions, and assess fit quickly
  •  Confident decision-maker who can move candidates forward (or not) with clarity
  •  Excellent communicator who sets clear expectations upfront
  •  Organized and able to manage multiple candidates in different stages 
  •  Comfortable having honest conversations about scheduling, availability, and pay
  •  Experience in home care, healthcare, or staffing is a plus 
Why Right at Home?
At Right at Home, we know that the quality of our caregivers drives the quality of care we provide. We are committed to creating a positive experience for both our clients and our caregivers and that starts with finding the right people.
 
You’ll be part of a collaborative, mission-driven team that values responsiveness, compassion, accountability, and doing the right thing.

U.S. Equal Opportunity Employment Information (Completion is voluntary)

We are an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, national origin, disability status, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.

You are being given the opportunity to provide the following information in order to help us comply with federal and state Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action record keeping, reporting, and other legal requirements.

Completion of the form is entirely voluntary. Whatever your decision, it will not be considered in the hiring process or thereafter. Any information that you do provide will be recorded and maintained in a confidential file.

Form CC-305
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 4/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.

How do you know if you have a disability?

A disability is a condition that substantially limits one or more of your “major life activities.” If you have or have ever had such a condition, you are a person with a disability. Disabilities include, but are not limited to:

  • Alcohol or other substance use disorder (not currently using drugs illegally)
  • Autoimmune disorder, for example, lupus, fibromyalgia, rheumatoid arthritis, HIV/AIDS
  • Blind or low vision
  • Cancer (past or present)
  • Cardiovascular or heart disease

  • Deaf or serious difficulty hearing
  • Diabetes
  • Disfigurement, for example, disfigurement caused by burns, wounds, accidents, or congenital disorders
  • Epilepsy or other seizure disorder
  • Gastrointestinal disorders, for example, Crohn's Disease, irritable bowel syndrome
  • Intellectual or developmental disability
  • Mental health conditions, for example, depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety disorder, schizophrenia, PTSD
  • Missing limbs or partially missing limbs
  • Mobility impairment, benefiting from the use of a wheelchair, scooter, walker, leg brace(s) and/or other supports
  • Nervous system condition, for example, migraine headaches, Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis (MS)
  • Neurodivergence, for example, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder, dyslexia, dyspraxia, other learning disabilities
  • Partial or complete paralysis (any cause)
  • Pulmonary or respiratory conditions, for example, tuberculosis, asthma, emphysema
  • Short stature (dwarfism)
  • Traumatic brain injury

PUBLIC BURDEN STATEMENT: According to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 no persons are required to respond to a collection of information unless such collection displays a valid OMB control number. This survey should take about 5 minutes to complete.

If you believe you belong to any of the categories of protected veterans listed below, please indicate by making the appropriate selection. As a government contractor subject to Vietnam Era Veterans Readjustment Assistance Act (VEVRAA), we request this information in order to measure the effectiveness of the outreach and positive recruitment efforts we undertake pursuant to VEVRAA. Classification of protected categories is as follows:

A "disabled veteran" is one of the following: a veteran of the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service who is entitled to compensation (or who but for the receipt of military retired pay would be entitled to compensation) under laws administered by the Secretary of Veterans Affairs; or a person who was discharged or released from active duty because of a service-connected disability.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

An "Armed forces service medal veteran" means a veteran who, while serving on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service, participated in a United States military operation for which an Armed Forces service medal was awarded pursuant to Executive Order 12985.
