Conduct during Red Flag Intrrview

[kindredspirit]

I stay nice and professional (they might have a normal friend to send my way one day, or the infant could one day attend my preschool program), but I do shorten the tour, and I don't ask further questions of them (just answer their questions). Then I tell them at the end it was nice to meet them and I'll be in touch. I message shortly after, either saying I feel a centre would be a better fit, or that I can't accommodate xyz that they need. If it was an interview for waitlist, I just say I'll contact them if a space opens for them (it never will, but I hate to burn bridges just in case... small town).

Never thought of keeping positive lines open Incase friend or neighbour may need care.... good point
