They use apple mac as their way of working with those of us who use screen readers.

This wouldn't be a work from home position. I would actually be going into the call center. But that does help and give me a bit of information.

Hello

I have tried applying direct with Conduient and they have point-blank told me they do not have any support for JAWS or screen-reading technology as of the time of applying back in 2018. I don’t know if they have changed at all, but they were pretty blatant about not wanting me as I very specifically mentioned I am a screen-reader user and wanted to ask who to contact regarding their technology as I had already been burned by applying to a work-from-home company called “My Employment Options”.

 

Hope this helps

 

Sincerely

 

Andrew Harmon

Good morning all, 

I applied for a job at a place called paper solutions here in New york. They are a call center job that does work for different companies. However after I got my offer and filled out all my tax forms. We started talking about my accessibility needs. They are now trying to figure out if the software will be accessible. But are basically telling me that if it's not that the job will not exist anymore. However they are working with a company called conduent  which runs their call center software. And I'm trying to find out if anybody has had any experience with this company? Also if they have if these call center softwares are accessible with jobs for windows. Any help or guidance in the right direction and navigating this situation would be grateful. Mike
