So you've had a bad time of it, you've quit your last job because the company converged and the new environment was horrible, they wanted to constructively make you leave, plus the girl you sat next to was making 'a project' out of you, analysing your every move, you've lost your confidence, your professional work persona is weakening.
I've been applying for jobs for a month and haven't even got a single interview, when I do finally get an interview [!], I might not even like the look of the job and it's likely they won't like me.
So, in the rat race of finding a job, having an interview etc, how do aspies in general (or without labelling - people like us) beat the other candidates who deep down in the eyes of the employer will always choose over us? How can we ever possibly be the best candidate? How many of us are unemployed out there?
This is the deep naggling feeling I have, which in the large scheme of things is quite simply a nightmare.
