Advice?

Hi all, I am yet to be diagnosed but have recently found a job that I want to apply for but I am unsure if I should put that I am in the process of being diagnosed or just simply not mention it at all?

Thanks.

    I know exactly how you feel - I first suspected I had Aspergers after yet another catastrophic interview! I now take the approach of doing more research about the firm beforehand, trying to target jobs and firms that might suit my autistic nature, trying to be cheerful and enthusiastic during the interview (not that easy, I know)  I try to go in with the expectation that I might not get on with the interviewer but accept that I can't do anything much about that. If the result is negative I just try and put it down to experience and move on.

    Some of this depends on the firm and people interviewing - what sort of firm is it?
