Autism and anxiety when job hunting

My daughter is 18, has recently had her diagnosis confirmed and is at college studying animal management. As part of this course she has to do work placement and would also like to work part time some where but her anxiety about expectations of her and the general social aspect of having to speak to a new person is making her feel physically sick. Can anyone share any positive stories where you have overcome this and are happily working so I can pass them on to her? Thanks Blush
