Glad to see this addressed here in some fashion. I know that there are many members here that DO the hiring of people for their organization. I ask of those that do this, to help me understand- as them being an employer of people- the following situation. If a candidate has a mental illness- let us not beat around the bush- if a person has a mental illness such as, Major Clinical Depression with Psychotic features, how would you handle that, and how would you suggest someone with this to do his part in explaining it to a company to which they seek work with? What does one say about this handicap? How would an employer feel about this if faced with it? I am not expecting a absolute answer, just some ideas to look at. I am a honest person, so to lie, or overlook it till some point after being hired, goes against my nature. Depression at times can be crippling, psychosis (visual or auditory episodes) can happen at times. Sticky situation. if anyone has an input, please feel free to post as hard as needed....J
