[Cabs-talk] Accessible Career Assessment Sites Similar to http://www.eure...

[Chela Robles]

the problem is not getting access to the test, the problem is that the
way the web site is and reads with screen readers is not working out
for me, thanks anyway, no wonder your name sounds familiar I've been
to dvc before went there 2007, and 2008, I might have run by you
during those time frames. I've dealt with DSS as well. I heard from a
fellow blind person from another list I'm on and they recommend highly
http://www.gettinghired.com/ which by the way is what I believe all
career sites should look like but they do not unfortunately! Thanks
and have a great day all.

"To me, music that breaks your heart is the music that stays with you
forever. It's one thing to be melancholy and one thing to be sophisticated,
but when you get the two of them together in a way people can relate to,
then I think you're on to something. You want the sophistication to lie in
the purity of the sound, the beauty of the arrangements, and the quality of
the performances."-Trumpeter Chris Botti
