Finding a new job - interview!

illustrated.lady

Hello,

I have been having a really tough time in my job recently, I requested reasonable adjustments due to feeling burnt out and exhausted much of the time but these were denied and I have ultimately come to the decision that I need a new job asap. 

I have an online interview later today and I'm so nervous, I hate online video chats, I find them really awkward and feel that I don't come across well. Whilst the job is not something I would be excited to do, it is a fully remote job and I wouldn't really have to deal with people and I feel like that is really what I need going forward.

This is also my first interview since being diagnosed as autistic and I am trying to gain more of an understanding of how it affects my work life. 

Any well wishes would be appreciated!

  • How long were you at your last job?

    You could always file a tribunal claim for disability discrimination. You can do this yourself and the website Valla has all the help and information you need to do this yourself. By doing this when you have secured a new job you will have a chance that your current employer will try to settle and you might get a bit of compo.

    Just because you file a tribunal claim doe not mean that you have to take it all the way and can withdraw it at any time.

    I do not like to hear about folks whose reasonable adjustment requests are refused, its feckin discrimination!

    Only an idea to mull over
