"This book provides guidance on recruiting, interviewing, and onboarding practices that will allow employers to successfully hire neurodivergent professionals into inclusive, competitive employment. Today 35% of 18-year olds with an autism spectrum diagnosis attend college, yet they have a 75-85% under-employment and unemployment rate after graduation. While organizations are looking to expand their diversity and inclusion hiring efforts to include neurodivergent professionals, current recruiting and interviewing practices in general are not well-suited to this. With over one-third of the U.S. population identifying as neurodivergent, employers need to address how to attract this talent pool to take advantage of a meaningful segment of the workforce. Readers of this book will gain an understanding of how to guide their organizations through the creation of recruiting, interviewing, and onboarding processes tailored to neurodivergent professionals in any field. Written by authors with extensive experience working in the corporate world and consulting with Fortune 1000 companies on autism hiring efforts, this book is targeted at employers, acknowledging their perspective. Structured as a reference guide for busy recruiters, hiring managers and supervisors, this book can be read in its entirety, in relevant sections as needed, or used as a refresher whenever necessary. This book also provides background on the thinking styles of autistic individuals, giving the reader a deeper understanding of how to best support neurodivergent jobseekers"-- |c Provided by publisher.

"An autistic writer's memoir of the detrimental effects of pretending to be normal, and her impassioned call to redefine what is considered a successful life. Sarah Kurchak is autistic. She hasn't let that get in the way of pursuing her dream to become a writer, or to find love, but she has let it get in the way of being in the same room with someone chewing food loudly, and of cleaning her bathroom sink. In I Overcame My Autism and All I Got Was This Lousy Anxiety Disorder, Kurchak examines the Byzantine steps she took to become "an autistic success story," how the process almost ruined her life and how she is now trying to recover. Growing up undiagnosed in small-town Ontario in the eighties and nineties, Kurchak realized early that she was somehow different from her peers. She discovered an effective strategy to fend off bullying: she consciously altered nearly everything about herself--from her personality to her body language. She forced herself to wear the denim jeans that felt like being enclosed in a sandpaper iron maiden. Every day, she dragged herself through the door with an elevated pulse and a churning stomach, nearly crumbling under the effort of the performance. By the time she was finally diagnosed with autism at twenty-seven, she struggled with depression and anxiety largely caused by the same strategy she had mastered precisely. She came to wonder, were all those years of intensely pretending to be someone else really worth it? Tackling everything from autism parenting culture to love, sex, alcohol, obsessions and professional pillow fighting, Kurchak's enlightening memoir challenges stereotypes and preconceptions about autism and considers what might really make the lives of autistic people healthier, happier and more fulfilling."--

Le Trouble du Spectre de l'Autisme (TSA) représente la deuxième pathologie neuro-developpementale la plus fréquente chez l'enfant. Ce handicap, présent tout au long de la vie, a des conséquences majeures sur le fonctionnement de la personne, mais aussi sur l'entourage familial et notamment les parents. Alors qu'il est fréquent d'entendre parler du « retard français » dans le champ de l'autisme, cet ouvrage recense de façon inédite des travaux de recherche nationaux sur les problématiques rencontrées par les familles afin de mieux les comprendre et les accompagner. Il met en lumière les évolutions sociales de la place des familles de personnes avec un TSA (parents, couple, fratrie, grands-parents), leurs besoins et adaptation au quotidien, le partenariat parents-professionnels et enfin les dispositifs de soutien et d'accompagnement. Il donne également la parole à des professionnels et chercheurs, œuvrant sur l'ensemble du territoire français, mais aussi à des familles et associations.
