Employment Resources for the Visually Impaired
(results may vary in you area)
I Googled jobs for the visually impaired and the jobs that were available were extensive. I couldn't believe the results; Bus driver, Undertaker, Uber and Lyft Drivers just to name a few. Obviously Google wasn't the place to search, or I wasn't asking the right question.
I noticed Indeed as a job search website and I clicked onto it. There were several job opportunities in my areas, and I had plenty of cross-over skills like customer relations, but there were more skills I didn't have.
Another job source was Linkedin. This source was valuable. It provides online classes for the skills I needed. At the end of each class you pass a test and get a certificate you can use on your resume. I spent hours building up my office certificates. I even started sending my resume to potential employers who used their website.
Once again, I used Google for job searching, but this time I searched "job training for the visually impaired." A friend had mentioned a website and I saw it in this search; The Department of Rehabilitation. This page proved to be invaluable. They work with people of all disabilities, provide job training, a Counselor independent living skills, peer support, skill development, systems advocacy, referrals, assistive technology services, transition services, housing assistance, and personal assistance services.
There may be other similar sources in your area.
Remember, You're visually impaired and still valuable.
