This could basically be a checklist to determine “is this person not autistic”?

When are we going to reckon with the fact that job interviews are designed to keep the neurodiverse out?

    So basically, “did they answer the questions the right way?” And not “Did they answer the questions correctly/while showing expertise.”

    This must be why I dont get call backs. They ask me what I would do in a given situation and I tell them in detail, drawing from experience, what I would do, and why.

    Its a completely different way of communicating than, state context, state action, state result. I’m crafting a narrative about how I would act. While they’re looking for a lab report of a sterile setting where I assume I know outcomes.

    Like others have said this is such bullshit for any remotely technical position. I try to demonstrate expertise when they, apparently, want me to demonstrate conformity.
