[Job-Discussions] Equal Employment?

[mbaldwin577 at gmail.com]

Thank you to those that responded to my earlier question on employment
gaps.]

I now have a question about EEO and applying for a job.

I applied for a job that requires an assessment.

The assessment, which they host on their own website is not accessible with
Jaws.

I contacted HR through their Twitter account. This was the only way listed
on their website. And explained in general terms that their assessment was
not accessible. Their response was that I should use Chrome and it would
work. So, I replied giving much more detail, including disclosing my
blindness. I have not heard anything back from them.

The ironic part, they have a whole department dedicated to Diversity and
Inclusion.

Does EEO and other employment laws extend to assessments that are required
for applying for the job?

This is a large corporation that I would think would be up to date on all
the employment laws.

 

Thanks,

Michael
