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

    I suggest reading the advice here, which explains some of the things to consider when deciding whether and when to advise a potential or current employer of your disabilities and your needs in respect of reasonable adjustments:

    NAS - Deciding whether to tell employers you are autistic

    A CV is often used to accompany a job application. As the NAS notes in respect of the application form stage of applying for jobs:

    “many autistic people choose not to disclose at this point for fear it may negatively affect the likelihood of them getting an interview or job trial and because they see few potential benefits.”
