Same with me, except every job I got was from employers who were desperate and would take anyone. The only exception is the job I have now, which ironically enough, I’m kinda crap at.

Traditional job interviews are very much geared against autistic people. I was absolutely awful at interviews, until the job centre actually sent me to a coaching service and I had it spelt out exactly what each interview question meant and what kind of answer I was expected to give.

Turns out “tell me about yourself” doesn’t mean tell them where you were born and what your hobbies are 😅
