This review is for my Level II fieldwork experience at Ability KC, which lasted 8 weeks. Overall, it was a great experience and definitely helped me become better prepared for the field. It is a nonprofit, so some of the equipment was older and it takes a while for things to get fixed, but the therapists I worked with were so nice and helped me out whenever I had questions. I believe the pay for COTAs starts around $22 but I think it is negotiable.

Question 1
My FWE would often ask why I chose the interventions I did, which was a great way to develop my clinical reasoning skills.
I interviewed twice -- once over the phone and then in person. I was ghosted and never even got a "We went with another candidate" email. I felt like it was unprofessional and in hindsight, I'm thankful I didn't go to work for them.
