Job Sites and Channels

Their main advantage is the number of offers. Job sites, social media groups and Telegram channels collect vacancies from all over the country, so a candidate does not have to be limited to options that are only available in his city.

If the specialty does not require regular visits to the office or production, you can work from home and receive a metropolitan salary without moving from your city. The main thing is that the business qualities of the candidate correspond to the requirements of the employer. This also applies to the state of health - some types of work may be beyond the power of a particular person. In this case, the refusal of employment will be Resolution of the Plenum of the Supreme Court of the Russian Federation of March 17, 2004 N 2 "On the application by the courts of the Russian Federation of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation" considered reasonable.

How to write a resume and prepare for an interview

The main thing is professional qualities

The employer must understand what a new employee can give the company. Therefore, the basic rules for creating a resume are standard. First, you should talk about your education and experience, describe the main achievements and skills, share expectations from work - for example, mention tasks that would be interesting to work with, and specify a fork by salary.

Additionally, the applicant should explain what working conditions are suitable for him. Perhaps he prefers to work from home, or he needs a special schedule that is different from what is set for most employees. The Labor Code allows this - the working hours in this case are determinedLabor Code of the Russian Federation, Art. 100 labor contract.

Whether to mention disability on a resume is a personal matter

It all depends on the specific situation. On the one hand, it is a filter that will filter out employers with prejudice about the job seeker's business qualities. On the other hand, such information will help the employer immediately understand whether he is able to provide suitable working conditions.

For example, if you work at a distance, nothing supernatural is required: an employee with a disability is the same team member as everyone else. When it is necessary to work on the territory of the employer, it is better for the candidate not only to tell about the disability, but and explain what restrictions it imposes - perhaps you need an equipped workplace and an accessible Wednesday. At the same time, refusal to create suitable working conditions for a person with a disability may be considered discrimination.Order of the Ministry of Labor of the Russian Federation of 09.11.2017 N 777 "On approval of guidelines for identifying signs of discrimination against persons with disabilities in resolving employment issues".

It is better to prepare in advance answers to questions about working conditions.

Disability is still a difficult topic of discussion. Many people simply do not know how to communicate with people with health problems, what questions they can ask, and what it is better not to ask about. Perhaps the employer has just such a situation - he has never hired an employee with disabilities and has little idea of ​​how to adapt working conditions for him.

Here you can take the initiative and tell yourself about the existing restrictions and additional equipment that may be required at the workplace. If a job seeker needs additional leave or is not willing to work overtime, it is worth negotiating onshore.
