I applied online. I interviewed at H2O (Ottawa, ON) in Jul 2016
Interview
- Interview consisted of several scenarios of pool-side situations and asked how we would respond
- If you pass NLS and have your certificate you will know how to answer these scenarios
- Very easy interview. They need lifeguards so they'll hire anyone that's certified
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
There is a drowning child with no guardian nearby. Pool is full. You are solo-guarding. What do you do in this situation?
It was an early morning interview. First I was introduced to three HR interviewers. They asked about my qualifications and work history. They talked about the benefits for working for the state and holidays health insurance and holiday pay.
