Before the holidays, I did an informational interview with someone who is trying to find a job in the disability field. This person has a visible disability and expressed some frustration at being unable to find any decent job leads. I’m going to try matching this person up with some colleagues in the hopes they may know about some opportunities that might be out there. I remember my own feelings of anxiety and uncertainly when I was last unemployed, so I’d like to do something to help this person. There are a number of agencies and organizations in the area that focus on disability issues, but the challenge is getting one’s foot in the door at the opportune moment.
