    I was thinking about it recently, another reason [beyond the other 10973 ones] I have job searching is that the stakes on each side are so different. HR person makes a mistake (assuming it’s not illegal and is blatant enough that you can actually sue) it’s “oopsie, bit of a mess up on my part” cause the stakes are that they might be mildly reprimanded at most. But if the applicant messes up (both in ways that are actual mistakes and ways that are “I said one word wrong and this neurotypical-maxxer thinks I’m a basement dweller now”) it’s “sorry, we don’t think you’ll be good for this position” and the consequences are you get to stress more about finding a job and not having an income
