job coach

Workplace skills trainer

A job coach is a professional who helps people find employment and succeed in the workplace.

Job coaches typically work with individuals facing barriers to employment—those with disabilities, mental health challenges, or limited work experience.

They assist with job searches, interview preparation, and on-site support during the transition to a new position: Her job coach helped her practice answering questions before the interview.
