Opening doors for neurodivergent talent

Getting a foot in the door is one of the biggest barriers facing neurodivergent job seekers. ASM works with organisations to design and build internship programmes that make recruitment genuinely inclusive.

​

Many neurodivergent candidates are highly skilled, yet standard recruitment processes - from vague job specs to high-pressure interviews - can create unnecessary barriers. This means talented people miss out, and so do the organisations that could benefit from them.

 

What we offer

Inclusive internship programmes, built around your organisation

 

ASM partners with organisations to design internship programmes with neurodiversity at the centre - from the very first job description to the final day of the placement. We bring experience, empathy, and practical tools to every stage of the process.

• Reviewing job specifications

• Tailoring interview processes

• Connecting to networks and reach

• Onboarding and induction support

• Mentoring and coaching for managers, HR, and interns

• Neurodiversity training for teams and hiring managers

 

Why neurodiversity inclusion matters: Neurodivergent people - including those autistic, ADHD, dyslexia, and other neurotypes - often bring exceptional strengths such as pattern recognition, creative thinking, and deep focus. Inclusive recruitment isn't just the right thing to do; it unlocks talent that traditional hiring processes frequently overlook.

We've built strong relationships with some of the UK's most respected companies -spanning industries from creative to finance, and across all sectors of the economy - to open doors for the next generation of talent.
