How One Company Makes Its Internships Truly Accessible for Neurodivergent Talent
from The Diversity Career Podcast with Fexingo: Inclusion, Equity, and Underrepresented Professionals · host Fexingo
In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore how a major tech firm redesigned its internship program to be genuinely inclusive of neurodivergent candidates. They break down the specific changes the company made — from replacing the unstructured group interview with a skills-based assessment to providing a mentor trained in neurodiversity support from day one. The result: a 40% increase in neurodivergent intern applicants and a 90% offer acceptance rate. Lucas and Luna talk through what made the program work, what other employers can learn, and why small structural changes often matter more than big declarations. If you've ever wondered what actual inclusion looks like in a hiring pipeline, this episode gives you a concrete example. #Neurodiversity #InclusiveHiring #InternshipProgram #WorkplaceAccessibility #Careers #DEI #TechIndustry #SkillsBasedAssessment #Mentorship #NeurodivergentTalent #AutismInTheWorkplace #ADHD #Dyslexia #HiringBias #Retention #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #DiversityCareerPodcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
