Interviews at The Communication Clubhouse

We care deeply about our teams and the people who make them up. Our interview process is designed to make you feel like you know us and are a good fit for our team. The first step in our interview process is a video chat with a member of our recruiting team.

We encourage you to use this as an opportunity to ask questions and learn more about the Occupational Therapist Practitioner role and career opportunities. From there, we will invite candidates to an in-person interview.

You will meet members of our clinical team (your future co-workers!) and this interview may also include a brief observation of a therapy session. By the end of the interview process, you should have a sense of who we are and how our OTPs are helping children take their next steps.

We can’t wait to meet you!
