Workability LLC Launches Spotlight Reverse Recruiting Service to Support Neurodivergent Job Seekers

Workability LLC has launched the Spotlight reverse recruiting service, a pioneering initiative designed to support neurodivergent job seekers in the United States and Canada. This service, priced at $750 per month with a three-month commitment, offers a comprehensive package aimed at simplifying the job search process and ensuring long-term employment success for neurodivergent individuals.

The Spotlight service was developed in response to the growing demand from parents seeking employment assistance for their neurodivergent adult children. Sheila Salido Jordan, founder and managing director of workability, highlighted the service's origins, stating it addresses the most common inquiry received by the company: requests for help in securing and retaining employment for neurodivergent individuals.

Subscribers to the Spotlight service benefit from a personalized approach that includes an assessment of their interests and skills, career pathway recommendations, and customized resumes and cover letters for up to five different job types. The workability team also actively searches for suitable positions, applying to at least 10 jobs monthly on behalf of the client, and provides interview scheduling and follow-up services.

Recognizing the challenges of job retention, the service extends support for three months post-employment, offering coaching and guidance to foster workplace success. Jordan emphasized the service's goal to reduce the stress and anxiety associated with job hunting for neurodivergent individuals by handling the logistical aspects of the job search.

While the service's cost may be a consideration, Jordan noted that it reflects the intensive support provided to each candidate. Some clients may qualify for partial reimbursement through their county I/DD department, potentially mitigating the expense.

The introduction of the Spotlight service underscores the increasing need for specialized employment services for neurodivergent individuals. As the labor market grows more competitive, such initiatives are vital in connecting neurodivergent talent with employers committed to inclusivity. Workability's commitment to this cause is further evidenced by its workforce, 75% of whom are neurodivergent or caregivers for individuals with disabilities, bringing authentic insight into the challenges of disability inclusion in employment.
