Career Strategy·
For neurodivergent jobseekers who want to build a career that fits their strengths, interests, and working style.
Finding the right career path can take more than a good resume. It can require a clearer understanding of what you do well, what kind of work environment allows you to perform at your best, how to position your experience, and how to approach employers effectively.
Neurodivergent Career Partners provides individualized career coaching, job search strategy, and hands-on employment support, from defining your direction and developing your professional foundation to advocating to employers on your behalf and supporting you through your first months in a new role.
Who We Work With
We work with neurodivergent jobseekers at every stage of their careers, including graduating students, those searching for a better fit, seeking a promotion, returning to work after time away, or restarting after a layoff, termination, or difficult job experience. Our clients include adults with autism, ADHD, and other forms of neurodivergence, along with anyone who thinks, communicates, or works in ways a conventional hiring process doesn't appreciate. Families are often part of the process too, especially with college students and younger professionals, though our focus stays on the individual and the career path ahead of them.
Why Clients Work With Us

How We Help
Discovery & Direction
A focused exploration of your experience, strengths, interests, career goals, and working preferences. We design a practical direction for the roles, companies, and work environments worth pursuing.
Career Foundation
Build the professional materials and search strategy needed to compete effectively, including your resume, LinkedIn profile, and interview preparation.
Employer Outreach & Client Advocacy
When you are ready for direct employer engagement, Alan and August advocate to target organizations on your behalf, introduce you to people in their networks, and stay involved through the hiring process.
First 90 Days
Getting hired is only the beginning. First 90 Days covers accommodation strategy, disclosure decisions, and manager communication, with structured reviews at 30, 60, and 90 days.
A Different Kind of Search
Our approach is hands-on, tailored session by session to the person in front of us. We take the time to understand the individual, identify where they are most likely to succeed, and shape the search around that path instead of running a standardized process, mass applications, or automated job scraping. When direct employer outreach is appropriate, that means real conversations with real people.
The First Step
Every engagement begins with an introductory call to determine whether our model is a fit for your goals.
A note for employers: if Alan or August has reached out to you, it’s because we see a genuine fit between a candidate’s strengths and your organization’s needs. Employers are never charged a fee of any kind.
