Summary
"This trial aims to see if a program focused on building strengths can help young adults improve their job interview skills, especially those who struggle with interviews and want to get better at them."

This trial is for young adults aged 14-26 in the USA who have Autism or are on the Autism Spectrum and want to improve their job interview skills. Participants should speak English well and be able to read at a 4th grade level.
What is being tested?
The KF-STRIDE® program, a strength-based intervention designed to enhance job interview abilities in young adults with Autism, is being tested for its effectiveness in this study.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves an educational intervention rather than medication, traditional physical side effects are not applicable. However, participants may experience varying levels of stress or anxiety during practice interviews.
