Re: Do you usually state your disability in your cover letter/resume? - April 22nd 2013, 01:58 AM

Personally, I wouldn't. Even though they can't legally deny you hire because you have a disability, in my mind, it makes it too easy for them to do so and then, if pressed, give another reason for it. If you require accommodations, then it will need to come up, but wait to talk about it with them in person so they get to know you before learning what is different about you and assuming what that means.
