Should I actually start saying yes when job applications ask if I have a disability? I’ve just been saying decline to answer as I find affirmative action unethical but I’m getting desperate having graduated in May with no job

depends on the jobs you’re applying for! if you know theyre looking to meet a quota or sm then yea put it, but if theyre not then it’s prob not worth it. you also might want to follow up more? jobs suck

See I would hate thinking I was hired for a quota and not on merit. But I also really hate being unemployed

yea i get that, ideally you want to be hired for merit but the job market sucks so sometimes u might wanna make some use out of being disabled lol. but im pretty strict on my beliefs so i get if youre just too against it to do that! either way good luck!
