The job developer's presence in the job interview: is it helpful or harmful to persons with psychiatric disabilities seeking employment?

This study examines the effect of having an employment specialist join supported employment participants at job interviews. The sample consists of 45 individuals with psychiatric disabilities who sought job placement services during a 28-month period between December 1991 and March 1994. Seventy-nine percent of the job offers occurred when the job developer was present in the interview as compared to only 21% when the job applicants went alone. The finding challenges "current" conventional wisdom about having rehabilitation staff at the worksite. Rehabilitation professionals need to take a fresh look at program policies and practices regarding on-site services to SE participants.
