Many large employers are becoming more proactive to recruit candidates with disabilities, neurodiversity and long-term health conditions. Some run their own schemes targeting disabled applicants, while others work with specialist organisations that manage the recruitment process on their behalf.
Student Futures would like to bring LJMU students a range of careers talks, workshops and activities around the themes of Sustainability and Green Jobs.
Understanding the law will allow you to advocate for yourself and know your rights as a disabled job-seeker or employee.
If you have any questions that you may want a quick answer to, then head over to our FAQs. Topics include Careers Team services, events and fairs, the CareerSmart Programme, finding jobs, placements and internships, postgraduate study, potential scenarios and school/faculty-specific information.
The organisations on this webpage offer a range of advice, support and guidance on recruitment and employment issues including sharing information about your disability or health condition with prospective employers.
If you are interested in building a career in the green sector, then we recommend talking to people already working in this field.
