The fact that I knew people working at PTS and that they could advocate for how their CF went def sealed the deal for me.
Recruiters are always going to be reaching out to you which is exciting and stressful at first! I asked a lot of questions in the beginning but then I got sort of overwhelmed/over the process and just wanted to confirm I had a job. I knew I wanted to work in a school, so I was in contact with a few agencies (EBS was another one I talked with) and filled out common applications for school districts in my area. It was really awesome to have connections at the company even before I started. My friends both had amazing things to say about the company and they spoke with their clinical directors about me. I really connected with one of the clinical directors and, after talking with them, I discovered I had two friends from undergrad who were working there. I found the company I work for, PTS, during a job fair at UD (where I went to grad school).
THE APPLICATION PROCESS - How many places did you apply to/interview for? I hope you find this post helpful and if you have any other questions for me comment below! The sections in this post are: the application process, COVID-related questions, the experience, miscellaneous, and looking forward. Now, let’s hear your questions! I’ve broken it up into different sections based on the type of questions. Mostly it is just another headache-inducing step in the process, but I digress… It’s just another extra mentoring step that we have to do before we are fully licensed by ASHA and the state boards.
#SLP TOOLKIT SCHEDULING LICENSE#
You DO get paid (yay) but you have to basically practice with a temporary license under an already-licensed speech therapist. It’s based on a set number of hours that most people complete in a span of ~9 months. I put “year” in quotes, because it isn’t necessarily a year in length. I go into a lot of info there about how CF life was in the very beginning which would be helpful to any new CFs reading this!Ī CF, or “ clinical fellowship“, is a speech pathologist’s first “year” of working. I’m back with another blog post about my CF (clinical fellowship)! I asked you guys to send in some questions you wanted me to answer.īefore checking this out, you can read my first CF blog post that I wrote 4 weeks into my first year as an SLP.
