Some other were in the middle of the two, but I wouldn’t even get a face to face interview but rather, I had to record my responses live from my webcam. It was demoralising.

I’m running out of time and options, since *gestures to the current state of the economy*. Help?

I’ve interviewed a few times for interest-adjacent jobs and got turned down. Once I flew so close to the sun I actually interviewed for my dream job - a cosmetic chemist role. And still I was turned down due to my lack of experience and the employer had a time constraint in training a new employee.

Applying for jobs has been the bane of my existence since I started having deadlines on how long I can stay in a country that isn’t mine. Some applications take days to fill. Some are QuickApply.

Is self-employment/entrepreneurship really the only way for #ActuallyAutistic folks? (Thread)

I’m 22, recent graduate (BSc in Chemistry) in a foreign country (#Australia), and unlike the vocal majority of #neurodivergent folks, don’t really feel like I have a special interest I can monetise on. I just want to clock in, clock out, spend my salary on little treats.
