  • How long does it take to get a interview?

    Once we send your resume it can take a day or a month before a client requests a interview, I seen nannies wait 6 months after they applied for a job to get a interview, then they got a job. We try our best to get a answer in 48 hours but it is not always our decision it is the clients.
