I have adhd. All the job applications ask for this. I have heard not to disclose it and to also disclose it. Should I? VOLUNTARY SELF-IDENTIFICATION OF DISABILITY FORM - CC-305 - Neurodivergence, for example, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), autism spectrum disorder, dyslexia, dyspraxia, other learning disabilities #interviews #tech #disabilities #disability #hr #humanresources
Ask yourself - What would you gain from disclosing it? And what you risk losing?
In school I took exams through the student disabilities office but there is not quite an analogue for it.
There are laws impacting the workplace for people with disabilities. If the company doesn’t want to comply, disclosing ruins your hire chances. Better to know up front than later If company is pro disabled, it gives you a leg up on bring diverse.

Do not put anything on record where it’s not required. Lesser the personal stuff you share, higher the leverage you have if/when things come down to scrutinizing past records. Don’t give up your leverage.
Thanks
