  • Attend and represent the FRC at meetings, resource fairs, seminars, and conferences; assist in the implementation of community-based activities; and offer in-person activities on a monthly basis.
  • Use a resource database to search for necessary goods, services, and supports; maintain the database and keep it current.
  • Complete all necessary paperwork such as progress notes, incident reports, timesheets, and required DDS progress reports throughout the year

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
