Three Ways to Prepare for a Job Interview with RISE

1. Revise Your Resume

If it’s been a while since you’ve reviewed your resume, this is a great time to give it a complete update. You can format your work and education history differently, depending on what you’d like to highlight. 

A chronological resume is a more traditional format, highlighting work experience and education. Begin with your most recent work experience, listing your employer, job title and description, primary duties, and dates you held the position. Then, work your way backward chronologically and include at least two more jobs.

A functional resume focuses more on skills and qualifications rather than work experience. This type of resume is ideal for individuals who have recently graduated from school and are seeking a position with RISE Services, Inc. Arizona. Begin with skills you’ve learned that relate to the position you are applying for, and then include additional sections such as education, professional experience, certificates or licenses earned, and volunteer work. 

2. Be Open to Change

Working at RISE Services, Inc. Arizona offers opportunities to explore several areas of caring for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD). If you’ve not worked in the caregiving industry before, it can be difficult to know what area will fit your skills and strengths best or if you will enjoy this type of career. 

When interviewing for a job with us, do your best to be open to various service-based positions. We have several job openings available, including helping individuals with I/DD find meaningful employment, supporting foster and adoptive families, assisting with daily tasks, like grocery shopping or public transportation, and working with children with unique needs. If you find a particular position isn’t right for you, we are happy to help you find a job matching your skills and professional goals.

3. Ask Questions

Like you, we want you to work for an organization you can support and find a job that interests and challenges you. There’s no better way to learn about a company’s culture than by asking questions. We encourage our candidates to learn all they can about our organization, including our services, clients, and what a career at RISE Services, Inc. Arizona can look like for them. The last thing we want for any of our employees is to be placed in a position that is not right for them. Before applying to work with us, look through our various job openings and learn about our competitive benefits package. Then, write a list of questions you’d like to ask during your job interview.
