The Recruitment Process of Hiring and Retaining them
We went through a lot of factors for autistic people and many of these apply to other neurodiverse employees, but a few for each condition are listed below:
- ADHD – applications may bore them too much. They may talk too much at interviews. They may need to do different tasks, may be unable to sit still, and may struggle to concentrate/focus. Keep questions to the point.
- Dyspraxia – may struggle using your equipment, may get lost on the way to the interview, be unable to set up props such as whiteboards for presentations, and struggle with directions.
- Dyslexia – may struggle with reading applications/interview questions, may need more time to process info, and may struggle with public speaking where they have to read off of something.
