graduates with asperegers forgotten

The Prospects service now only operates in London. Mainly people living in London can really benefit because the people are mainly placed in low paid,low skilled jobs. People cannot commute from the Home Counties to London unless the pay is high.

Outside London, the companies are smaller, which means a person has a much higher chance of being a multi tasker (communication skills, social skills required).

Many graduates struggled to get well paid career related job even before the recession. The competition for graduates was tough, now it is much tougher. People to have apply for jobs, perform well at interviews and possibly pscometric tests/assessment centres. Very few aspie graduates have managed to be the best candidates.

If graduates do not secure career related job they work as administrators or call centre workers. I ccan work in call centres but the vast majority of peopple with AS cannot work in call centres. A substantial proportion of people with AS have dyspraxia which makes working in administration and call centres difficult. Manual work is not an option for most aspies. Outside London, there is higher likelihood of the work being controlled by recruiment agencies which generally have a poor understanding of disabilities esdpecially hidden disabilities.

Graduates are over-qualified for many non - graduate jobs.

The job centre is not really interested ion helping graduates. Disability Employment Advisors generally have a poor knowledge of neuro - diverse conditions. Remploy, Shaw - Trust, RBLI, A4E are poor at supporting graduates achieve their potential.

There are very few jobs today where a person can sit in isolation and work. IT and Engineering jobs have been destroyed in the UK.
