ALSO, your state’s department of labor (or similar agency) might have an apprenticeship program. For example, here’s Texas’s https://www.twc.texas.gov/services/job-training/find-apprenticeships

I have a few bits of advice. Based on your mentions of schedule A and LiUNA, I’ll assume you’re on the US. My job is in IT but experiences might differ depending on your field.
Search for jobs on online job boards like Indeed, but apply through the company’s website.
Check over your resume and cover letters for typos or misspellings. If you’re a student right now, you can have your school’s career center look over your resume and help you refine it. My resume sucks ass so I don’t really have tips for making it good.
Note the requirements listed in the job description and write down how you fulfill each requirement. If they’re looking for 3 years of experience with X, describe some of the projects you’ve worked on involving X and some things you’ve accomplished by using X. You don’t want to read this out during the interview, but it’s important to organize your thoughts ahead of time.
Don’t mention your disability in your resume, cover letter, or elsewhere in your application. If possible, don’t bring it up in the interview, either. (Some disabilities will be obvious to the interviewer, or you might need accomodations for the interview–in this case, you can’t really avoid the interviewer knowing.)
If you really need a job now, apply for jobs you don’t want as well as jobs you do.
I’m autistic as well and I had to keep reminding myself to talk more and elaborate on my answers in the interview. I also practiced facial expressions and behaving in a way that made me seem personable. Don’t be yourself, be their ideal candidate.
Lie on your resume. Lie in the interview. Make yourself seem more competent and experienced than you actually are.
And finally, have the same favorite author as the hiring manager.
“Hamas-run health ministry” gets me every time
“Name the two most famous myths of civil defense.”
“Uhh, we can win a nuclear war, and the survivors are the lucky ones!”
I think it’s probably okay
I can’t tell how many Americans have tried marijuana
I like the mourning dove because it has a nice voice https://youtu.be/AOZmkZ72ISI?si=1frvs9MPk_rd4wPU
Late Victorian Holocausts looks fascinating, thanks for bringing it up.
