The Employer Assistance and Resource Network (EARN) monthly newsletter features and recognizes employers successful practices for outreach, recruitment, hiring, and accommodating workers with disabilities. EARN invites employers who would like to highlight their effective practices in employing people with disabilities to submit articles for future issues of the EARN newsletter.

This month, the EARN newsletter focuses on strategies for hiring people with autism. A growing number of employers consider people on the autism spectrum to be business assets, with unique and sought after skills in industries where accuracy and attention to detail is paramount.

In the March 27th article, “How Autism Can Help You Land a Job,” Wall Street Journal Reporter Shirley S. Wang highlights the efforts of software company SAP and mortgage lender Freddie Mac to strategically recruit candidates with autism.
