    Dude, I’ve gotten rejected from jobs because of it. Yes it’s illegal, no it’s often not worth suing if the government decides not to take the case

        I’m not sure why this would ever come up in a job interview, it’s not your employer’s business.

          It wouldn’t come up in an interview, unless it’s a tiny business.

          Being ADHD myself, it wouldn’t surprise me if the person above made it a topic of conversation themselves. Inability to shut ones mouth is something I am more than familiar with.

            It could also be a matter of them disclosing it to get accommodations.

            “By the way, I have ADHD, so might need a bit of help here and there” seems entirely reasonable for someone to say in an interview, but might also get them rejected.

              Oh it’s totally reasonable to bring it up but I still wouldn’t do it though.

              Rarely have I had a company be upfront about any issues they have so I am more than willing to reciprocate.
