The problem AccessMaker solves
- Implement an efficient algorithm that considers skills, preferences, and
workplace accommodation needs to connect job seekers with disabilities
to suitable employers.
- Develop an accessible interface with job listings, ensuring individuals
with disabilities can easily search for and apply to positions. The interface
should comply with accessibility standards.
- Enable users to create profiles with customizable accessibility settings.
This flexibility ensures that individuals with diverse needs can tailor their
profiles to navigate the platform seamlessly while showcasing their skills
and experiences effectively.
- Establish forums and networking opportunities within the platform to
allow individuals with disabilities to connect, share experiences, and
provide mutual support. These community spaces should foster a sense
of belonging and empower users by creating a supportive network.
- Facilitate mentorship programs that connect individuals with disabilities
to experienced professionals. These programs should provide guidance
and support, helping mentees navigate their career journeys successfully.
The mentorship platform should be easily accessible, fostering
meaningful connections.
- Include information and resources related to disability rights and legal
support services, empowering individuals with disabilities to advocate for
their rights in the workplace.
