What's covered
In this session, Helen covers:
- How to see your neurodivergence as a strength and position it positively to employers
- How to navigate disclosure in the job application process and the benefits of being open if you choose to disclose
- Advice on requesting the adjustments you need to thrive
- And more!
A note on language: we know the word 'disclosure' isn't for everyone, so we encourage you to use the language you feel comfortable with. Alternatives include 'being open' and 'informing' people about your disability.
