Um dos momentos mais importantes do processo de colocação com a família é a primeira ligação. É através dela que você e a família poderão começar a sentir empatia um pelo outro, demonstrar interesse um pelo outro. Por isso é muito importante estar bem preparada para ela, que é mais do que uma simples ligação, é também de certa forma uma entrevista para um emprego.
