Last Friday was International Day of Persons with Disabilities! I wanted to know if any tech companies actually hire and accommodate people with disabilities not just post about it! I know companies like Microsoft have an ability program specifically for new graduates with disabilities. Anyone know of any other companies that offer programs like this? As a new graduate with a disability it has been hard finding a job at a company with a inclusive culture. Any advice would be much appreciated!

There are definitely plenty of companies that accommodate, but I agree - many just say they're inclusive because it sounds nice and they don't want to be 'cancelled.'

Exactly I actually started a job this past August while taking my last class online and it was with a one of the biggest companies in the USA and i when I showed up the first day they did not accommodate at all it got to the point to where I physically couldn’t continue to work there so I left after 2 months to focus on my online class and look for other opportunities.

Have you had any internships in tech before? I noticed they are usually more supportive of rehiring individuals with disabilities than those without

I’m open for anything at the moment, it’s just hard to find a good entry level program with a good company thats fully remote.

I feel like there must be some out there. I’ll ask around my network and see if anyone knows of anything.

Thank you! Please reach out if you get any information!
