Networking is also difficult if you're not neurotypical and/or handicapped...
What field are you in? If you're in computer science then congrats, you're surrounded by them!
Comp Sci students don't do the hiring though; business majors and HR do. So being anything other than neurotypical is still a disadvantage.
Students don't do the hiring, but they can tell the people who are hiring that you're the right choice.
Disagree.
Networking, as in introducing yourself to people blindly absolutely is. I mean simply talking to the person next to you, discussing questions in small groups, being involved in a workshop. Talking to your group in a group assignment.
And if thats still too hard - many unis have clubs for neurodiverse students.
