Job Shadowing information

What is job shadowing?

Job shadowing is a career exploration activity where an individual observes a professional at work to gain insight into a particular job or industry. During a job shadowing experience, the participant follows an employee through their daily tasks, asks questions, and learns about the skills and responsibilities involved in the role. This hands-on observation helps individuals decide if a specific career path aligns with their interests and goals. Job shadowing can be especially useful for students or those considering a career change.

What should I expect during a typical job shadowing experience?

During a job shadowing experience, you can expect to observe a professional as they go about their regular workday, participate in meetings, and handle typical tasks. You'll likely have opportunities to ask questions, take notes, and gain insights into the workflow, team dynamics, and expectations for the role. While hands-on involvement is usually limited, you'll interact with team members, observe problem-solving strategies, and get a real sense of the work environment. Being proactive in your observations and respectful of the professional's time will help you make the most of the experience.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in a job shadowing experience?

To thrive in a job shadowing experience, you need a willingness to learn, keen observation skills, and foundational knowledge relevant to the field you are shadowing. Familiarity with basic office software and the ability to take notes or research company processes can be beneficial. Strong communication, professionalism, and adaptability help you engage with mentors and make the most of the experience. These skills ensure you gain valuable insights, build connections, and maximize learning opportunities during your shadowing period.

The RBT Floor Supervisor is a critical leadership role within the RBT Rise Program, responsible for
supporting the clinic floor operations and the development of the RBT team. This role is designed
for experienced Lead RBTs, ready to transition into a leadership role that focuses on mentorship,

RBT Support and Training: Provide hands-on training, guidance, and mentorship to RBTs to
ensure they deliver behavior intervention plans effectively while maintaining clinical best
practices.
Modeling Best Practices: Demonstrate effective clinical techniques, data collection
methods, and client interaction strategies to help RBTs enhance their skills.
Facilitate Onboarding: Lead the onboarding of new RBTs, coordinating shadowing
sessions, and facilitating training modules to ensure a smooth transition into their roles.

consistency in clinical practices.

and assistance necessary to fulfill their responsibilities effectively.
Break and Lunch Coverage: Fill in for RBTs during breaks and lunches, as needed, to
maintain clinic operations without disruption to client services.


RBT Mentorship

Mentorship Role: Act as a mentor to the RBT team, fostering professional growth through
feedback, coaching, and hands-on guidance.
Performance Evaluation Assistance: Collaborate with the Lead BCBA to provide feedback
during RBT evaluations, assisting in identifying areas for improvement and recognizing
achievements.
Leadership Development: Help identify and develop future RBT leaders by mentoring highpotential team members and offering leadership development opportunities.
Recruitment, Shadowing, and Onboarding:
RBT Shadowing: Oversee shadowing sessions for new and current RBTs to ensure they are
learning and applying best practices in a clinical setting.
Onboarding Process: Lead the onboarding experience for new RBT hires, ensuring they are
equipped with the necessary tools and knowledge to succeed in their roles.
Interviewing and Hiring: Participate in the RBT recruitment process by conducting
interviews, evaluating candidates, and making hiring recommendations based on
organizational needs and cultural fit.


Care Delivery Support


Support in Clinic Care: While not scheduled for direct client care or dosage, the RBT Floor
Supervisor plays a critical role in supporting the overall care delivery process by ensuring
clinic operations run smoothly and that RBTs have the support they need.

We're Looking for Someone With:


Minimum of 1 year of experience as a Lead RBT in good standing or previous experience
and demonstrated competency.

Ability to lead, mentor, and guide a team while maintaining high clinical standards and
