Your Placement Journey

A clear, step-by-step overview of our placement process — from your initial application to your caregiver\u2019s confirmed start date.

Four illustrated phases of the placement journey: application, search activation, video interview, and placement start.

Featured profiles unlock after your $500 retainer is verified.

A Zoom request becomes an appointment only after agency confirmation.

Final payment must be verified before your placement package is released.

Agency authorization is required before proceeding with an in-person meeting or trial.

We recognize previous verified payments. You will never be asked to pay twice.

STEP 7Who acts: Family

Review Featured Candidates and Select Interview Choices

Review the approved profiles in your private portal and select the candidates you would like to interview.

This selection expresses interview interest. It does not reserve a candidate or confirm an appointment.

Submit your interview request and preferred times for your selected candidates.

Status: Interview requested — awaiting candidate availability.

STEP 9Who acts: Agency and candidate

We check the candidate’s interest in your position and availability for the interview. If needed, we will discuss alternative times or candidates.

STEP 10Who acts: Agency

Receive Your Zoom Confirmation

Your interview is confirmed when the agency provides the appointment date, time, time zone, and Zoom link.

A requested time is not a confirmed appointment.

STEP 11Who acts: Family and candidate; agency records completion

Complete Your Zoom Interviews

Meet your selected candidates and discuss experience, duties, schedule, and compensation. Afterward, share your feedback with the agency.

We do not auto-complete interviews when the scheduled time passes. Cancellations, rescheduling, and missed interviews are tracked separately.

STEP 12Who acts: Family, candidate, and agency

Choose Your Preferred Candidate — Both Sides Confirm

Tell us whom you would like to move forward with. We also confirm the candidate wishes to proceed and review the proposed duties, schedule, compensation, and next step with both parties.

The family’s selection alone is not mutual confirmation or a completed hire.

Complete Payment & Begin

Receive Your Final Invoice

After both sides confirm interest, we issue the invoice for your selected placement package, less verified payments, plus applicable taxes.

We show the package, coverage period, verified credits, taxes, and exact remaining balance. The retainer is credited once.
