When you capsize a PWC you should always follow the label on the back when rolling it back over. Most PWCs now include a decal that tells you which direction to turn the watercraft back up. If they do not include this label you would have to try to find an owners manual for that specific PWC
When it comes to actually turning the watercraft I find most success in getting to one side of the PWC and pushing down on the near side. Then after it begins to roll I will grab the opposite side (by where your feet go) to pull that towards me. It is almost like trying to climb it without going anywhere, but the PWC will roll. This must be done carefully and depending on the size of the PWC and the former rider(s). I am a larger person with a small 2 person PWC and I manage doing it this way just fine.
When it is upside down you should attempt to flip it back ASAP along with running the bilge when back upright to pump the water out of the hull. I also check for any weeds by peeking at the water intake while its upside down.
Reminder: Proceed with caution while flipping your PWC back upright. It can roll on to you and always make sure that the engine is not running (if the kill switch worked properly).
