[NABS-L] Fwd: I'm being recruited for a job with inaccessible technology and need advice?

[Justin Williams]

If it is a job, I would reframe from telling them until you get the job.

Thanks,

Justin

So the job is a research assistant in a psychology lab. Part of my job will
to be using Qualtrics to create surveys but that is not accessible. Even so,
I sure know how to create a survey. The same with Mendley, a reference
classification system. Again I've read it's not accessible, but I can
certainly classify documents. I have that brain power.

1. Since all the recruiting is on Zoom, I don't think they know I'm blind.
Should I tell them or should not tell them unless I'm hired to protect
myself?
2. Does anyone know of any accessible JAWS alternatives to Qualtrics and/or
Mendeley?
3. What are my options? I know I can use AIRA (for a fee) or a reader.
Or I can put the information in Microsoft Word or ExCel for others to put in
the software? Are there any other ideas?

Thank you so much.

Best,

Amy Albin
