Disabled people may feel that finding a job is pretty tough. There are lots of jobs out there for people with disabilities. Depending on the type of disability that you have would determine the type of job that you can get. For example, if you have hearing disability, then it would probably not be a good idea to get a job that requires you to use your hearing.
Some of the types of jobs for disabled people that they can work include working in the office, working outside, and maybe even working for yourself. One place you can start looking for jobs is through GettingHired. This website is geared towards getting businesses connected to disabled people. The site is free for potential employees who want to sign up. You can also check with federal or state governments to find out the types of jobs that they have. Usually governments give preference to disabled people when they are hiring. Check USAjobs for open federal positions that you can apply to. For those disabled people that cannot leave home, there are also some jobs you can do from home. For example, you could apply for a telemarketing position or a customer service representative. These jobs only require that you have internet access and a phone line. When you are applying for jobs, be sure you apply to as many as possible. The more you apply to, the better your chances of getting a job.
If you are the entrepreneurial type, then you may want to start your own business instead of having to worry about who will hire you or not. Figure out what type of skills that would be marketable. If you are good at being a handyman, then you can fix up people’s houses. If you like landscaping, that is also a good business to go into.
