Books, Manuscripts
Finding a job is a confusing and anxiety-provoking process for many individuals with Asperger's Syndrome who may not know what they are qualified to do and may struggle to communicate their value to employers. In this book, Asperger's employment expert Barbara Bissonnette describes exactly what it takes to get hired in the neurotypical workplace. Job-hunters are taught how to develop a personal profile of their talents and skills, their ideal work environment and important work criteria. They are then shown how to set realistic goals and develop an effective job search plan. Every aspect of finding employment is covered, from defining strengths and researching occupations, to marketing oneself, networking, and projecting confidence and enthusiasm in interviews.
