Should You Disclose Your Disability on Your Resume? What to Consider

5 min read · Updated on December 17, 2021

Should you disclose your disability on your resume and application? Here's what to consider.

The fact is more than 61 million adults living in the U.S. have a disability, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention . For context, that's 26 percent of the population. These disabilities can be invisible or visible, affecting anything from your mobility and cognition to your hearing and vision.

Searching for a job when you have a disability can be stressful, and you might find yourself wondering if you should disclose your disability on your resume or cover letter. After all, you want to be transparent and make sure a company has your back — but you also don't want to open yourself up to discrimination. While this is a personal decision, here are a few things to consider beforehand.

Should I disclose my disability on my resume? 

You may feel compelled to disclose your disability on your resume; after all, you want to be transparent with a potential employer, right?

However, you're not obligated to, per the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). The act “prohibits discrimination in recruitment, hiring, promotions, training, pay, social activities, and other privileges of employment.” Additionally, employers are not legally allowed to ask about a candidate's disability before making a job offer.

So, legally, you are not required to disclose your disability on your resume — but should you?

Many career experts agree: You should not disclose your disability on your resume. If you are capable of doing the job and meet the requirements, then stating your disability on your resume is irrelevant and could distract from your qualifications, leading to workplace discrimination .

Addressing employment gaps on your resume due to your disability

Now, if you're worried about employment gaps on your resume due to your disability, there are ways to get around this. Most employers won't care about an employment gap that spans less than a year, but if you were out of employment longer, here are a few things you can do:

Highlight any unpaid experiences: Think certifications, volunteer work, online courses, and more.

Group freelance work together: If you did freelance work or side jobs, you can group those together on your resume.

Switch up your resume format: Instead of going with the standard chronological resume format, you could use a functional resume format .

If pressed about your employment gap in your job interview and don't want to disclose your disability, you can keep your explanation simple by explaining you were dealing with some personal matters. 

If you feel as though you want to provide more information, make it clear you had to stop working due to your disability — not a lack of interest or ambition. You can then explain why you're fully prepared and committed to working again. Optimism and a positive attitude can go a long way!

When to disclose your disability in the job application process, if necessary

Experts largely agree you shouldn't mention your disability on your resume or cover letter, but should you disclose your disability at some point in the job application process?

That's entirely up to you, but here are two questions you can ask yourself when weighing your options:

Will I need accommodations?

Will failing to disclose my disability make the application process difficult?

If you'll need any accommodations to do the job, it may be worth mentioning this in your interview so you don't surprise your employer on the first day of your job. This might also help you relieve any anxiety around the matter.

You might also choose to disclose your disability if choosing not to could make the application process difficult. For instance, if you're deaf, you may need to get an interpreter for the interview, or if you use a wheelchair, you can make this known so the employer can properly accommodate you when you go in for an interview. You can address this by saying something along the lines of, “I use a wheelchair, so if we could meet in a room with a door wide enough to accommodate, that'd be great!”

Sometimes disclosing your disability before an interview, even if you don't need any accommodations, can help ease your anxiety. You never want to feel like you're hiding a secret, and sometimes just making this known upfront (after you secure an interview) may help.

Now, if you have a visible disability, this will be evident during a job interview. Under the ADA, employers should know not to ask you about your disability. If they do, however, you can explain you don't feel comfortable answering their question, or you can ask them why they're asking the question in the first place. 

This could allow you to address any concerns they may have. Again, you're not legally required to answer any of their questions , so if you don't feel comfortable, simply say so.

In conclusion 

Remember: No rule says you have to disclose your disability during the job-search process. In fact, you shouldn't feel any obligation whatsoever to include it on your resume or cover letter. From there, it's ultimately your decision. Once you weigh all your options, do whatever makes you feel most comfortable.

The 3 Best Cathie Wood Stocks to Buy in April 2024

InvestorPlace - Stock Market News, Stock Advice & Trading Tips

Full disclosure, I’m not a tremendous fan of Cathie Wood. Generally, I think she makes some terrible picks. For example, what many would consider the best Cathie Wood stocks to buy in April, and her two largest holdings were Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN ) and Tesla (NASDAQ: TSLA ). Both companies’ valuations are in the stratosphere. And Coinbase is facing tremendous competition from Bitcoin ( BTC-USD ) ETFs, along with a potentially ruinous lawsuit by the SEC. Meanwhile Tesla is struggling amid a huge amount of competition from many veteran automakers and Chinese start-ups.

However, sometimes she does make great picks. For example, she was an early believer in Tesla before the stock soared tremendously. Here are the three best Cathie Wood stocks to buy in April. I believe that these names can, like the TSLA of the past, soar impressively.

Exact Sciences (EXAS)

Exact Sciences (NASDAQ: EXAS ) specializes in developing tests for cancer. The Street has generally given the company no credit except for its colon cancer test, Cologuard, which generates huge amounts of revenue.

But that could be starting to change. On March 28 the company announced positive data on a non-endoscopic esophageal cancer test. The announcement caused EXAS stock to rally. Specifically, the shares jumped about 10% between March 28 and the afternoon of April 4.

Furthermore, the revenue from a number of the company’s other tests is booming or poised to soar. For example, the overseas revenue of Exact’s Oncoptype tests  climbed 48% last quarter  compared with Q4 of 2022. And, the firm is predicting that the sales generated by its Predictive Oncology unit will soar to $1 billion in the not-too-distant future.

The firm’s bright outlook makes it one of the best Cathie Wood stocks to buy.

Roku (ROKU)

Roku (NASDAQ: ROKU ) owns the leading streaming operating system in the U.S.

Unsurprisingly, with streaming on the rise , Roku’s engagement numbers are soaring. In 2023, its streaming hours jumped 20% to over 100 billion, while its net user total surged by 10 million.

Ultimately, marketers buy ads based on the media that consumers are using, and Roku’s usage numbers are rapidly increasing. As a result, it’s unsurprising that the firm’s top-line rose an impressive 13.5% last quarter to $984.4 million. Given the continued, rapid proliferation of streaming, I expect Roku’s sales to continue growing quickly in the coming quarters and years.

Zoom Video (ZM)

During the pandemic, Zoom Video (NASDAQ: ZM ) was a growth stock with a very high valuation. But now it’s actually a value stock with a rather low forward price-earnings ratio of 12.67 times.

In the fourth quarter of last year, the company’s revenue from enterprise customers rose 5% versus the same period a year earlier to $667 million, while its overall sales advanced only 2.7% year-over-year to $1.15 billion.

The discrepancy suggests that the firm is gaining a great deal of revenue from enterprises and slowly losing sales from consumers. Since the company makes more revenue from enterprises than from consumers and since enterprises have much bigger budgets than consumers, I think this dichotomy will cause the company’s growth to accelerate over the longer term.

On the date of publication, Larry Ramer held a long position in EXAS and a short position and put options expiring in March 2025 on COIN. The opinions expressed in this article are those of the writer, subject to the InvestorPlace.com  Publishing Guidelines .
