Questions
- Do I work for you or for the organization?
- You complete cases for the organization that confirms you. Their reviewer approves your work before it goes to the regional center.
- Can I see client information before I accept?
- No. Open requests show the organization, language and due date only. Client details unlock after the organization confirms you for the case.
- Is it remote?
- Yes. Interviews are by phone and everything else happens in the platform.
- How long does an assessment take?
- Plan on about an hour to prepare, an hour on the phone, and a short time to review the draft. The platform does most of the writing.
