 Job coaches do a variety of duties in the course of assisting  someone both on and off the job site. Below is a list of duties for  a typical job coach. 

 Placement specialists are responsible for researching, screening, interviewing and placing job candidates in various positions within a firm. These professionals use various methods--email, cold-calling, instant messaging applications, Internet research and electronic databases--to solicit candidates for job openings.

A customer can receive one or more of the Non-bundled Job Placement services.

Each Non-bundled Job Placement service can be purchased only once for a customer.

Non-bundled Job Placement services can be purchased with On-the-Job Training (OJT), Apprenticeship, and Job Skills Training when determined appropriate by the VR counselor.

Non-bundled Job Placement services are purchased when a customer does not need assistance from a provider to be placed in a job.

Non-bundled Job Placement services must not be purchased when Bundled Job Placement services or Supported Employment services will be or have been purchased unless a VR3472, Contracted Service Modification Request for Job Placement, Job Skills Training, and Supported Employment Services has been approved.

Telerehabilitation is the delivery of rehabilitation services over telecommunication networks and the internet and includes vocational rehabilitation.

Not all customers will benefit from participating in telerehabilitation for meeting attendance and remote service delivery. VR counselor or OIB worker must evaluate each customer's case to determine when telerehabilitation is in the best interest of the customer and whether the customer has access to required resources and has the skills necessary for effective use.

When the VR-SFP service chapters allow or when indicated on the TWC-VR referral form, a provider may:

• implement accessible training activities using a computer-based training platform that allows for face-to-face and/or real time interaction; and
• use video telecommunication services and software such as Video Relay Services or FaceTime, as training tools.

The service provider must ensure all requirements in the TWC-VR SFP, including confidentiality and the customer's literacy and disability needs are met in the delivery of the services.

A disability is any condition that makes it more difficult for a person to do certain activities or effectively interact with the world around them (socially or materially). These conditions, or impairments, may be cognitive, developmental, intellectual, mental, physical, sensory, or a combination of multiple factors. Impairments causing disability may be present from birth or can be acquired during a person's lifetime. Often, disabled people are "unnecessarily isolated and excluded from full participation in society." As a result of impairments, people with disabilities can experience disablement from birth, or may be labeled as disabled during their lifetime.

 There’s an old saying “don’t judge a book by its cover” which is technically true, however, product designers create packaging with the mind-set that people do judge, and they’re not wrong.  This also applies to how someone dresses. The visual aesthetic we present to others through our appearance and apparel is extremely important. We live in a judgmental world; we are quick to make assumptions and to categorise individuals based on what we see.
