Summary
Ryan, a vocational counseling educator at the college level, considers issues of disability in some of the time-honored ways to search for a job. He covers self-assessment, exploring options, building paperwork, searching traditional and alternate sources, creating networks, and mastering interview etiquette. He includes tips on handling application forms and awkward questions from the front desk, explaining gaps in experience, and surviving rejection. He also gives a summary of employment laws and some positive ways to deal with others' misunderstandings of disability accommodation. An appendix includes a long list of job links from the US Department of Labor Office of Disability Employment Policy.
