Apex Professional Exchange’s application and screening process includes:

  • Detailed application with personal and professional history
  • Pictures (and optional video)
  • Care experience and number of hours accumulated
  • Criminal background check
  • Physical exam and medical history
  • Professional references that are verified by Apex Professional Exchange
  • Personal references that are verified by Apex Professional Exchange
  • Proof of education and degree (also verified by Apex Professional Exchange)
  • Apex Professional Exchange personal interview
  • English language assessment
  • Personality test using the Dr. Hartman Personality Assessment (“The Colour Code”).

Apex Professional Exchange works directly with a large network of European universities, vocational training schools and hospitals to source candidates for our professional care program. We also receive referrals from respected organisations such as the German Red Cross. Host families receive detailed information about our care professionals, including their training, experience and skills, so they have a complete understanding of their background and credentials to care for children and people with or without special needs.
