The article is suggesting getting rid of interviews and resumes, so they are the ones suggesting you be treated differently. Sometimes you need to treat people differently in one aspect to treat them the same in another. Autistic people will always be left behind if you hold the same expectations as you do others. It's not unfair to make things fair for the disadvantaged. No one would tell a wheelchair-bound person that they're getting special treatment because we don't force them to use stairs.

Darmik 10/21/19 5:38:10 PM #39:	Loud_Pipes posted... hockeybub89 posted... Autistic people are people too. Why should we be treated differently just because our brains act differently? The article is suggesting getting rid of interviews and resumes, so they are the ones suggesting you be treated differently. Instead of using CVs and interviews, potential employees undergo a basic competency assessment in which they are evaluated against 25 desirable attributes for software testers, such as the ability to learn new systems or take on feedback. Following these initial tests, potential staff undergo a week of working from home fully paid. Potential recruits also know they can choose to work on a DTE (a desired-time equivalent) timetable, meaning they can take on as many hours as they feel comfortable managing, rather than being tied into full-time work. As a result, we have a talent screening process to take someone who has never done this job and at the end of that process have a 95% degree of confidence whether people would be great at this, says Anandan. It's not like they're just given a job. Also this is a business that is specifically looking for autistic employees. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:929062189] in It seems &...

Why should we be treated differently just because our brains act differently?</quote> The article is suggesting getting rid of interviews and resumes, so they are the ones suggesting you be treated differently.</quote> <quote>Instead of using CVs and interviews, potential employees undergo a basic competency assessment in which they are evaluated against 25 desirable attributes for software testers, such as the ability to learn new systems or take on feedback. Following these initial tests, potential staff undergo a week of working from home fully paid. Potential recruits also know they can choose to work on a DTE (a desired-time equivalent) timetable, meaning they can take on as many hours as they feel comfortable managing, rather than being tied into full-time work. As a result, we have a talent screening process to take someone who has never done this job and at the end of that process have a 95% degree of confidence whether people would be great at this, says Anandan.</quote> It's not like they're just given a job. Also this is a business that is specifically looking for autistic employees.</quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

Ultima Dragon 10/21/19 5:43:52 PM #43:	Who are all these autistic people that are trying to find employment but being refused for their affliction? Is it similar to how "nice guys" or incels are trying to find a woman? Got rejected the all of one time they tried so all women are bitches/whores, clearly. Last time I checked there wasn't a box to check on applications for whether you were autistic or not. I've also never been asked that question in an interview. Employers only care that you show up for work and do the job. They don't give a fuck if you have depression, anxiety, ADHD, whatever. Just get shit done. I can see how anyone that isn't high-functioning would see barriers to employment, but in those instances shouldn't they be on some sort of social assistance anyway? They probably can't hold down a regular job. --- "We know things can move faster than the speed of light because liberal tears are on the ground before something offensive even happens" - Coffeebeanz <cite>Ultima Dragon posted [p:929062421] in It seems &...
