Of course you can blame the companies! What is even your argument. You're saying that disabled people should be treated different from abled people and not be given the same opportunities? Communica...

How's a stutterer supposed to compete with other job applicants when they can't even enter the interview stage?...

wow!, you’re few of the lucky ones I guess…in my case I find it real hard to find a decent job because of my speaking situation which makes me melancholic. ...

So I'm low IQ and autistic? And I'm also stupid? Do you think lashing out at people who challenge your negative worldview may have something to do with your difficulties in life?...

What a stupid argument. That is like saying since there are famous black people there is no racism. Also most people on this list only stuttered as a kid like Ed Sheeran. You can thrive as a stutt...

Well that I why I said bad stutter. People who only stutter "a bit in the interview" like you are not the people I was talking to. There are people who have minute blocks and spasms who don't shar...

Obviously many of us can get hired easily, but we shouldn't project our experience on others. Just because we weren't discriminated, doesn't mean others weren't. And just because we were discriminate...

I disagree. While working a crappy fast food job as a stuttering teen, I built up my confidence and started working the drive-thru window for an hour or so on a few random shifts. I developed a funny ...

Well, I've also stuttered badly during interviews and still got hired. Many others have, too. So yeah, so employers are dickheads and some aren't. ...

I mean OP literally said that after they disclosed their stutter, the interview got immediately canceled. Yes I'm pretty sure they found another person in the exact same moment! Just because hyperse...

You can't blame the companies. I mean, ability to communicate with co workers and discuss things is very important in work environment - it is essentially required skill for job. I wouldn't hire some...

There’s a difference to getting rejected because of negative traits and personalities, and getting rejected because of a disability you have no control over. It’s like saying that white women die of ...

The ATC thing makes sense. An error in speech could have serious consequences. But for most other jobs, they're not supposed to discriminate against PWS. The rule in law is that they can only reject s...

I don't apply to any jobs which are talking oriented. Only jobs which require no talking OR jobs which would otherwise require communication between coworkers (which is 95% of all jobs), but the ver...

I am not gonna be like toxic positive stutterers so I am gonna tell you the actual truth of life as a stutterer. If you have a bad stutter just give up on jobs where more than 50% of the job is talki...

Welcome to reality, that's real world outside this special reddit "sub", in many countries they even outrightly mentions in notification/JD that PWS is not allowed and interviews and medically fit af...

I know, you can't tell for sure. That's why I said the best you can do is point out inconsistencies. Like if you have a back and forth conversation with a recruiter online, and then you disclose your ...

" stutterers get hired for jobs every day" Not when you disclose your stutter and they cancel the interview. That's happened to me several times. Including minimum wage blue collar jobs....

How do you know for certain you got rejected for your stuttering if they didnt mention it? It's currently a rough economy for everyone out there, which makes finding a job hard for everyone. Starting ...

I used to hire lots of people over many years (as a stutterer). There are many criteria for hiring the right person for a role. Technical skills are only one factor. Attitude, presentation, interest i...
