Project details

What we need
  • Recommendations on active and passive recruiting and proper channels to pursue candidates
  • Guidelines for hiring process, including order and number of interview rounds, reference checks, and general best practices for an inclusive interview
  • Effective interviewing techniques and clear, consistent standards for evaluating candidates
  • Tips for negotiating details such as compensation package and title
Additional details

We are looking to open our Early Intervention and Workforce Development program for Fall of this year. We will be recruiting more than 100 people from now until September. And we need help with setting a strong foundation to ensure that we get this hiring process right!

What we have in place
  • We currently have industry experience and knowledge, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have a highly motivated CEO (me), and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $4,806 , allowing us to furnish 4 sensory rooms!

This project will set the tone and temperature for all those who come into contact with our team in the next few months. We want to be able to bring on the right team and that starts with the right hiring practices.

Our mission

The Inspired Community Project, Inc. is a 501(c)3 nonprofit research organization serving New York City's families of children with special needs. Our mission is to provide early intervention services to children with disabilities, transition support for their families and specialized career training and placement for those living and working in the community we serve. By ensuring our research is
vast, our employment is family-centered, our vendors are local, and our dedication is always to the community around us; everyone leaves us inspired and empowered.

What we do

Our applied research will help bring best practices and equity to education across NYC.

Our center-based program will provide Early Intervention services to children with special needs in historically underserved and systemically disenfranchised neighborhoods.

Our family support programs will empower our families to advocate for their children and navigate the quagmire that is special education services in New York City.

Our Family-Centered Employment policies will ensure that our staff feel supported and appreciated not just by words but by policy and action.

Our training curriculum, certification support, and career placement will enrich the community with more job opportunities in a field that will not only serve their soul but their career aspirations as well.
