How it works for respiratory therapists

Licenses

Common here: Respiratory care practitioner license, Registered respiratory therapist (RRT), Basic Life Support (BLS), Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS). The respiratory care practitioner license is the one the law requires for this slot, so it's needed to be matched on it, and employers may make it a hard requirement. A license with its number counts for matching; verification is optional.

Trade partners you might meet

ICU nurses, paramedics and pulmonary physicians.

Where you'd meet

A short facility tour, or a coffee near the facility before or after a shift.

Mentoring

A seasoned RT and a new grad on nights is a natural match. Mentors choose how often they can meet.

Questions

Do respiratory therapists need a résumé?

No. You answer a tap-only questionnaire, check your skills and how deep each one goes, play a few short work stories, and invite people to vouch for you.

How is my license shown?

Entered with its number and state, it counts for matching right away and shows as "Self-reported". Verification ($29.99) adds a "Verified" badge. The number is never shown.

Can I meet over video?

No. This work always meets in person: A short facility tour, or a coffee near the facility before or after a shift.
