Corvilla is dedicated to helping individuals with disabilities obtain and maintain meaningful jobs in their community. We are looking for someone who wants to make a difference in a rewarding career as an EMPLOYMENT SPECIALIST with a focus on helping individuals discover what is the best job match for them and following through with helping them land this job.
We accomplish this by arranging job shadows, real work opportunities, learning about the individual’s strengths and barriers and putting all the puzzle pieces together to help them make the best choice for a job goal.
