While I was looking for job postings recently I saw that my local library had an opening for a circulation clerk, and I was wondering if anyone here knows if someone with Aspergers would be suited to the job.
I'm in my early twenties and currently living in an emotionally abusive home, I desperately want to leave and find a small apartment or something, but I've always had trouble finding a job because I physically can't stand being around more than a few people at a time and too much noise sends me into panic mode and I lock up and start shaking and can't speak to anyone.
Which is why this job actually sounds like something I could do, I enjoy reading so I've spent time before in Libraries and in that quiet, calm atmosphere I think I could actually deal with with people without locking up, and I would work hard at it too.
Problem is, I know nothing about they're expecting for a job applicant, what makes me feel even worse is that because of how I am around people, I have basically no work experience, which means no resume. So does anyone know if someone who has never worked in a library before would be suitable for this job? Or is this something too advanced and they're expecting who has worked as a library assistant before?
If anyone on here has ever worked at a library before I would really like to hear your input, thanks!
