Also is it just me or does it throw anyone else off when applications ask about if you have any physical or mental disabilities, and they say it’s because they’re not allowed to discriminate against workers if they do, but I feel like that’s a lie

The wording is always the stupidest it possibly can be as well. Nobody ever has said “I sometimes for the most part cannot recall having feelings where I disliked myself”. Just make the statement to respond to “I dislike myself”, why so many spare words?

I honestly lie on those. I know my honest answer is probably not what they want to hear, but if I need a job I need a job

"Yes I am severely depressed and suicidal but I need money and I took theatre as a kid so I'll show up and act like I'm thrilled to be there so I don't see how that's relevant unless you're worried about me not showing up to work because I offed myself...don't worry tho I have a dog who is ALSO severely anxious and is entirely dependent on me so I'm not going anywhere for at least the next 5 years."

They look for certain traits, it’s not exactly like this but its a “what would you do in this situation” and its got one very wrong answer and two very similar ones

Employers can’t see answers to the EEO questions on job applications. It’s a federally mandated part of the app they couldn’t take it off even if they wanted to

They legally aren’t allowed to ask anything in regards to these things because they can infact discriminate against you, by not hiring you because of your disabilities/ mental health issues, then pass it off as just you not qualifying in general

This. Told the fast food recruiter I would need MINOR accommodations (less than what I actually would need but I don’t want to get fired for “inconveniencing” them) and I didn’t get hired. I had open availability, could start immediately, had reliable transportation, and 4 years of retail/customer service exp. All I asked for was to sit for 5 min every few hours.

I’m nervous to do this because I want them to know before I waste my time at an interview where they see I’m disabled and reject me, or go to work for a few days and get fired for not being able to do the job well enough.

Doing this now, using no mobility aids, only braces sometimes. Many know I have pain/joint issues, but not the actual extent of the issues. One or a few people know I have OCD (relevant to doing dishes).

CVS does this for their pharmacy techs too. It’s to see if people are going to be able to work with you and if you will cause issues w customers but it literally doesn’t work at all bc one of my coworkers threatened all of our lives and she passed so this shit does NOTHING

Rookie mistake. Inform them of reasonable accommodation requests once you have the job.

Yeah, it was my first interview in many years, and since becoming disabled. I kind of panicked. Even my doctor told me not to do it again in the future

Genuinely just complete the whole thing like you’re the most able bodied, mentally well, open availability, and then bring up the rest of that stuff once you get hired

i always fill out surveys like this as if i were a neurotypical able bodied person. if they don't discriminate against disability then whatever i answer on those questions shouldn't matter
