[QUOTE="EG3, post: 213856, member: 40122"] Random question: I have ADHD and obviously they always mention reasonable adjustments in the applications process. I've had things like extra time in online tests, VIs and written assessments, but one thing I struggle with is interviews. I find it hard to actually take in what they're asking, think about my answer, say it all coherently and remember second parts to questions. Obviously in a normal conversation I don't really have that issue but I think the general interview nerves make it worse. Is having the questions written down a possibility? I never know if reasonable adjustments are kind of pre-determined depending on the condition or if you get some sort of say in what you need. I'm also wondering if needing extra time and the like ever puts firms off hiring you - I know most are disability confident employers but would they ever give preference to someone who doesn't need extra time to complete the same task to the same standard?
