My son with Asperger's

[SheilaT]

2. He had several things in his favor

when looking for work.

One was that he is an entry-level employee. He told me that in the job interview the comment was made that since he hadn't worked anywhere else yet, he'd have no bad habits to unlearn.

Also, the Kansas City area where he lives has a large number of engineering firms -- one of the largest concentrations of such firms in the country, I understand. So that helped.
