The job coach provides students in REEP’s workforce classes individualized support on a work-related goal. Duties: Meet with students in small groups or one-on-one sessions to understand their goals and ambitions. Develop an effective job search and career growth plan for individual students. Show students how to utilize job search sites, create and edit resumes, apply to jobs, and fill out job applications. Prepare job coaching participants for job interviews, including simulating interviews. Advise students who have not chosen a career path about potential professions and education programs. Maintain confidentiality of students’ personal information. Conduct internet and telephone research outside the job coaching session to support student preparations as needed, likely 1-3 hours per week. Often REEP students have education and career experience from foreign countries, and research is required to translate their credentials for use on their US resumes. Present the job coaching program to prospective students in a five-minute presentation at the start of the term. Collect students from their classes when it is time for their job coaching sessions. Summarize progress during job coaching sessions and share these summaries with coordinators and other job coaches via email or Google spreadsheet. The summaries are to be written shortly after the job coaching session and distributed to all members of the job coaching mailing list. Notify Volunteer Coordinator in advance of any absences.
