Support for autistic individuals. Autism focused interview help.

Demonstration of key app screens

A selection of reviews of our app on App store/Google Play


"This app is excellent! Most apps that are sold as guides to doing well on job interviews are little more than illustrated booklets of tips to practice answering common questions (perhaps with a few remarks on making sure that your suit is clean and pressed, your arrive on time, and so on). This app, though, covers much more ground, and will help the users do many more things, than any interview-guidance app I have ever seen for ANYONE (with or without autism)." By Kate Gladstone

"As a coach who works with neurodivergent communities, I'm always researching for assistive tech tools. One of the more challenging areas within job search is the interview. Many stumble due to anxiety. This app is the perfect practice tool for these communication situations. The panic button immediately brings you to a series of responses that you can choose from to best fit what you want to convey. Under audio resources, click on music to unwind to after a long day. I especially love the tools sections, which focus on continuous and revised self-reflecting on strengths and weakness. What really made this app four stars is the ability to jot down your past interview history in a super handy app. Which is super crucial for individuals struggling with executive functioning skills. Everything in one awesome app."

"It's a great app. The colors are very calming and interesting and help make the equally inspired advice in job interview etiquette more interesting. The skills taught can help anyone with a refresher course in relationship building through positive conversations among your peers and employers."

At last, an App to support autistic job interviewees

Our Autism Focused Interview Tips App is now out on Google Play for Android & the App Store for iPhone

 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.autiquest  


 https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/interview-tips-autism-focused/id1575266130 


What is so unique about out app, we are often told, is that it brings everything together in one place! 


Please note that there is a one off purchase cost for the paid version of our app whereby you get a 100,000 word app with 1000s of tips and that is regularly added to with new content and with absolutely non of the following:  


NO ADVERTS

NO POP-UPS

NO UPGRADES

NO SUSCRIPTION

NO SURPRISES

NO INTRUSION

NO PAYING EXTRA AT ALL....EVER


Autistic people help design every aspect of it and told us that they want non of the above - just a simple paid app!


At last, an App that addresses a recurring problem, namely how autistic candidates often struggle to perform well in job interviews where the situation seems loaded against them from start to finish. Yet neurodiverse individuals are often star employees when in jobs. Neurodiversity should be embraced. Those on the spectrum have particular skills. 


So our App has the mighty aim of breaking down one of the key barriers to employment for autistic individuals....the JOB INTERVIEW - whereby some of the common innate traits of autistic individuals (such as being straight talking and the need to process information at a gentle, steady rate) are actually huge disadvantages in job interviews, which can involve game playing and quick fire questions. The App also deals with another key barrier, namely poor understanding of autism on the part of interviewers.


We are also developing an alternative to another barrier, which is perhaps not as obvious, namely the traditional Resume/CV. Autistic job seekers often have little work history, work history with gaps or just work history that is not the norm. This means that it can be hard for them to sell themself and also means that they get filtered out at an early stage. So we are developing an alternative, based on a Skills Profile. The process of developing this Skills Profile is intended to be one of self-discovery for the autistic person and, it is intended, will help build confidence and will be a long way from a Resume/CV with gaps to explain. 


Many autistic job seekers report that they can “do the job, they just can’t do the interview!!” – so organisations miss out on outstanding talent. 


The diversity of thinking and approach of autistic individuals needs to be valued and harnessed. With the right support, their job interviews do not have to be derailed. This App, containing over 100,000 words providing 100’s of tips, plus with useful audio and video resources addresses this situation. Autistic individuals have helped in the design and development of the App, having provided accounts of the problems that they face during job interviews as well as providing useful tips to pass on. Whilst aimed primarily at autistic individuals, others who are part of the neurodiverse community may also gain some benefit from the App. 


There is a huge 10,000 word section for interviewers too!!.


Also useful for job coaches; careers advisors; universities; colleges;  autism advocates; HR and Talent Acquisition professionals.


The initial version of the App are paid versions - autistic individuals whom we receive advice from told us that they generally prefer paid Apps rather than Apps with intrusive adverts full of clutter and banners.
