Before I start this may I say that I have absolutely nothing against anybody who is disabled.
My contract is shortly up at work so I have started to put a few feelers out. I got sent two job specs today for investment banking roles (good firms). On the bottom of both applications it says: -
"Note for Disabled Staff: Under our Guaranteed Interview Scheme, disabled applicants are entitled to an interview. If you are applying for a vacancy, and would like to be considered for a guaranteed interview, please note clearly in the space provided on your application form that you are disabled."
Now my biggest problem at work is that I am not qualified. On my floor I am the only person who did not go to uni and on my team of 10 I am the only one who is not a qualified accountant. Part of my problem is getting the interview as my education is way below the job which I do. Once I get in front of the hiring manager I have always got the job.
Not sure where I am going with this but it does give someone a strong advantage. This must be a new thing as I have never seen it before.
Ending this may I say that I have absolutely nothing against anybody who is disabled (except they get guaranteed interviews for really good jobs).
