It should be a mutually beneficial meeting. In other words, you\nshould be interviewing them too! From the first point of contact with the\nagency/center/ company, to hearing those words “We’d like to offer you the\nposition”, you should be watching, listening, and paying attention to see if\nthis is a place you want to work for:\u003c/span\u003e\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003ci style\u003d\"mso-bidi-font-style: normal;\"\u003e\u003cspan face\u003d\"\u0026quot;calibri light\u0026quot; , sans-serif\" style\u003d\"font-size: 11pt;\"\u003eDo you really\nwant to pour your talent, time, and energy into the company??

You may be interviewed in\nstages, starting with non -clinical staff and working up to the company owner.\nYou may be interviewed by multiple people at once, who all have questions for\nyou. The interview can be casual or very formal, and can occur at the office,\nor in a public setting (like at a restaurant). While the norm may be sitting\nand answering questions, some companies may want you to role play or\ndemonstrate skills, get down on the floor and interact with some actual clients\n(in your lovely business suit…..that’s fun.

This post\u0026nbsp; may be more or less applicable to your situation, depending on your ABA work setting (school- based, home -based, etc.).\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nFirstly, if you didn't already know please be aware that direct staff (staff who require a supervisor to perform their role) cannot work as independent contractors according to the governmental definition of a \"contractor\". If you are an ABA therapist working directly for a family, I am speaking to you.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nAlso for best practices, and especially if you are a RBT, you really \u003cu\u003eSHOULD\u003c/u\u003e be working under a BCBA or BCaBA (who is under a BCBA). For clinical supervision and case oversight the best case scenario is the tiered service delivery model where there is a supervisor overseeing the work of the direct staff.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eYes\u003c/b\u003e, there are employers who try to shirk or entirely skip over this model but I don't recommend it.

You can work independently or choose to contract with companies, which just as it sounds will require you sign an employment contract.\u003cbr /\u003e\n*Tip: Read over that contract suuuuper carefully. I have turned down many a position based on horribly written contracts that the company refused to modify. As a contractor you do have autonomy to set your schedule/hours, are responsible for your own materials, supplies, taxes, etc. Your income is not taxed and you are not entitled to any benefits.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nFor an employee position, it's basically the opposite of everything I just said about contractors. Some companies will just require you sign an offer letter, but other companies still require employment contracts even of employees. Your income is taxed, you are eligible for company benefits (depending on what is offered), etc.\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\nI hear from many people in the field who want to know how to \"break out on their own\" and start working independently, as a contractor. There is no quickie answer to this, it varies depending on the laws/licensure where you reside, your ideal work setting, your familiarity with business ownership, etc. Contracting is not for the faint of heart, and I don't recommend you jump right into it the second you gain BCBA certification. Give yourself some time to learn and develop your skillset before considering working independently.\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class\u003d\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\n\u003cbr /\u003e\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class\u003d\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\nThere are pros and cons to being an employee or being a contractor; it just depends on what works for you.
