Acknowledge Your Hearing Loss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"Woman](\"https:\/\/kampsenhearing.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Woman-shaking-hands-with-her-interviewer-1.jpg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\nHearing loss can be a very personal experience, and you may not wish to disclose information about it to your potential employer, but there are some benefits to doing so. Disclosing your hearing loss gives your employer the opportunity to make ADA-mandated<\/a> accommodations ahead of time, including but not limited to the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n- Providing a qualified notetaker<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Providing a sign language interpreter<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Providing captioning software<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Providing written materials ahead of time<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
One or more of these accommodations may be helpful in your interview. Consider reaching out to your potential employer ahead of time to request one of the specific accommodations listed above or discuss other accommodations that best suit your needs. Approximately 15% of U.S. adults have some level of hearing loss<\/a>. The prevalence of the condition means that most employers will be equipped to provide you with reasonable accommodation. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nPractice for Your Interview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Many interviewers will ask similar questions about your work ethic and personality. Try writing out your answers to common interview questions ahead of time to give yourself a little more confidence when they\u2019re asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Preparing for some common questions may also help fill in the gap if you feel you\u2019ve missed some information, and when in doubt, don\u2019t be afraid to ask for clarification or repetition of a question or point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you frequently experience interview stress, try picking up a cup of calming herbal tea from Kaleisia Tea Lounge to soothe your nerves before your big interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wear Your Hearing Aids<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Hearing aids are a powerful interview tool. The small but technologically advanced devices can amplify speech sounds and reduce ambient background noise<\/a>, allowing you to better focus on and understand your interviewer.<\/p>\n\n\n\nJob searching with hearing loss can be stressful, but with a bit of preparedness and help, you can feel confident in your ability to land the job you want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
