Back in January, we posted an interview from a PT new graduate that took his first position out of school with RehabCare. He completed one of his affiliations with us so he was already somewhat familiar with what RehabCare was all about. Now I did a Q&A with a new graduate that we met at the APTA Student Conclave, took through the interview process and hired on after graduation. I was curious to compare the point of view of a student who completed an affiliation and took a job with us and that of a student who came in without much previous knowledge of RehabCare and also took his first job out of school wth us.
Q. From the perspective of a new graduate, what did you think of our interview process (from meeting us at the APTA Conclave to being contacted by our recruiter to the offer of employment)?
I thought the interview process was very precise. It was brief and structured well. After meeting RehabCare at the APTA Conclave I received a call from Laura and she helped me put a timeline in order as to when I should begin to interview and such.
Q. What about RehabCare stood out amongst other employers you interviewed with?
RehabCare was the first group that I interviewed with and being that I had multiple other interviews to attend I was most impressed with the patience that RehabCare had to allow me the time I needed to complete other interviews prior to making a decision on the offer of employment.
Q. What made you decide to come on board with us?
I decided to accept the offer with RehabCare because of the high emphasis that RehabCare puts on education of their staff PTs. It is also very close to home!
