Applied Behavior Analyst Resume

Applied behavior analysts mostly work with children suffering from autism. But they are also capable of working with adults facing behavioral issues. Their job is to assess what is preventing patients from interacting with the surroundings in a normal way. Based on their assessment, they develop therapy programs that help patients learn new skills and develop those they already pose.

You can apply for an applied behavior analyst job to a hospital, school, rehab center, or a non-profit organization. Your resume should demonstrate how you made differences in the lives of all who you have provided therapy to.
