Job applications

NAS88297

Hello I hope your all well 

I'm in a pickle, I receive Universal Credit, I've completed a UC50 form and signed off by GP. Part of work commitments job advisor has asked me to register with employment agencies and online jobsite like CV library, Monster etc 

They require me to upload a CV…. A couple of things 

C.V looks completely alien to me, like its someone else's 

Also I'm struggling to find where to put my AUDHD, CPTSD, social anxiety that limits me from getting public transport (live in middle of nowhere) sensory overload etc even with earplugs/headphones 

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated

  • My personal opinion is to not disclose your diagnoses / accommodation needs on your CV. If you want to share that information, I would wait for the interview. Your application should highlight what you can do well instead of what you need in order to do well.

    Besides, while it may be illegal to discriminate job applicants based on their disabilities, there’s still a likelihood that companies will ignore applications that display disabilities and needs upfront.
