FAQs for Applicants

No, job applicants never pay a fee to complete an application with RewardingWork.org. Rewarding Work is a FREE service for caregivers to use to find full-time and part-time jobs within our participating states. Once you submit your application, your information will be listed on the database of workers and you may apply for jobs on our Job Board.

Only employers who are registered and have active subscriptions with RewardingWork.org may view your application. Employers will contact you using the contact information you provide, and will let you know that they are responding to your application on RewardingWork.org.

We encourage you to visit the Job Board on a regular basis, as new positions are posted almost daily! To apply, you must be logged into your applicant account. Then, click on the position that interests you to read the complete job description. Click Apply to this Job and complete a short online form. If the hiring employer thinks you may be a good candidate for the posted job opening, he or she will contact you directly. (Note: Before applying for a position listed on the Job Board, please make sure that you meet the qualifications of the position and that you live within a reasonable commute.)

Many (if not most) employers will conduct a Criminal Background Check on a job applicant. This is standard procedure, and does not mean that the employer thinks you are untrustworthy. Criminal Background Checks vary by state, but your consent is required to begin this routine process.

No. The name of your city/town appears on our database but your street address is never published.

Rewarding Work's website is responsive and may adjust to the mobile format if your desktop is set to a high zoom format. To return to the desktop layout, reduce your zoom level.

If you cannot make an interview for any reason, you must contact the employer in advance since they have set aside the time to meet with you. Let the employer know whether you need to reschedule or cancel. Ask to reschedule if you are still interested in the job. If you are no longer interested in the job, be honest and let the employer know that is the reason you are canceling the interview. We do follow up on employer complaints and have removed applicant profiles for this reason. Thank you for remembering to be courteous at all times.

We are here to assist you with complaints. Contact us at 866-212-9675, or by email at: support@rewardingwork.org

We do not ask job seekers if they have received the COVID-19 vaccination, but please feel free to enter that information in your Applicant Profile.
