How We Help
Vocational Inventory
We use the World of Work Inventory (WOWI), a career assessment designed for screen readers. WOWI offers career matches and insights into candidates’ learning styles and task preferences, guiding them toward fulfilling careers. Candidates receive a work inventory report and support from Alphapointe staff to interpret and apply their results.
Resume Assistance
We employ current best practices to aid candidates in crafting or updating their resumes for immediate impact. Job seekers are supported with design, formatting, accomplishment statements, applicant tracking system optimization, and other services, to ensure their resumes stand out.
Interview Support
93% of job seekers are anxious about interviews. We’ll help ease that worry with one-on-one prep, mock interviews and feedback, transportation assistance, employer communication for accessibility issues, and clothing assistance.
Job Coaching
Job coaches offer onsite and offsite support, assisting workers with disabilities to gain independence in their new roles. They help overcome barriers, including support for those struggling with company training modules. Providing a job coach for workers with disabilities is considered a reasonable accommodation under the ADA.
