During interviews I always loose marks on competency based questions and feedback is always "came across as nervous", "tenancy to waffle, answering competency questions"
In my defence, I do have multiple disabilities (mental, sensory, hearing and mobility)
The interviewer asks the questions and before they've finished the question, ive forgot the first part of the question, never mind how I'm going to answer it...
does anyone have any tips on getting round this?
I have a Masters in HR management at level 7. I started my work career as a chef, worked from the bottom to the top over 15yrs and realised at the top I was doing more HR related tasks than catering and I liked it. What also pushed me to change careers was my decline in mobility and mental health.
In the past I hid my disabilities and declining health and it backfired on me and resulted in me being accused of gross misconduct. After that I decided to not hide it anymore and I do declare things but not to any extent unless asked. it seems hiding things did me no favours and declaring it dosent either at times.
I have thought about setting up my own small business but have no idea where to start in terms of software to use, start up costs and things like insurance etc.
