Job interviews

Robert124

I've just failed at yet another job interview.

I do fine in mock interviews but when it comes to the real thing I'm tongue tied and I mumble.

  • Hello. Sorry about this.

    Be kind to yourself, interviews can be very difficult and stressful.

    Face to face traditional interviews processes are typically not the best way for us autistic people to show our potential and knowledge. These processes usually do not suit our neurotype, communication style or skill set. Other alternative interviews methods such as practical tasks or competency based tests could suit some of us much better.

    You may find this article interesting, it is about alternative employment and interviews for autistics:

    Good luck for next time.
