Wow,what a coincidence, I am a firefighter volunteer and I am going to study mental health and my interview is tomorrow.. this video is for qualified practitioners and am a student, I have picked up alot from your video which will help me tomorrow. I feel confident. Thanks you for this video.
@jodirook71 on September 28, 2021 7:41 pm

How can I make myself more appealing to an employer when I am a physician associate, and the current market only wants nurse practitioners?States are changing the laws for Physician Associates as well because nurse practitioners and Physician Associates essentially do the exact same job. Yet currently every mental health practitioner position I see open is almost exclusively for a nurse practitioner how am I marketable as a physician associate when the jobs are only listed for nurse practitioners?
@vIEL-ge1ke on October 1, 2021 12:24 pm

Hi Richard, great videos with awesome tips got my job offer today
@ybrfrybrfr9452 on December 8, 2021 8:59 am

@TheMysticAngel on January 28, 2022 11:30 am

I have an interview for the HCA position at band 3 at a teen mental health community hospital. Can I use this video to prep for the interview? Because I don't have much experience in mental health what can I say when it comes to them asking me about my experience? I only have my psychology and my care qualification. I have worked with children though etc. If you can help me that would be amazing! Thank you.

This man is a genius!!!! I have had 2 job interviews in the NHS. My first was in 2019 for a Health Care Support Worker and I watched Richards video, and it helped me get the job! I have today heard that I was successful in my new job as a Mental Health Practitioner!!! Thank you so much for your effort in making these videos! I also recommend the website as it gave me questions I hadn’t really thought of to think about. Thank you so much!!! Maybe il be back to your channel in a few years for job number 3!!!
