Episode 11 - Hiring for Talent, Not Performance: Making Recruitment Neuroinclusive
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Why do so many recruitment processes reward interview confidence rather than actual capability? In this episode of SEND It – Brains at Work, Steph and Claire explore how traditional hiring practices can unintentionally exclude neurodivergent talent. From inclusive job adverts and interview adjustments to work trials, quiet spaces, and the Neurodiversity Employers Index, they unpack practical ways organisations can create fairer, more effective recruitment processes. Expect evidence, insights, workplace realities, and a healthy dose of humour along the way.
