But, you don't look Autistic
summary
Covers concrete definitions and diagnostic history, explains three ASD levels and that prevalence is about 1 in 70, cites a surprising Australian employment stat of 34.1% unemployment for autistic people, and gives specific workplace fixes that are tested in practice: predictable schedules, work‑from‑home, sensory accommodations, structured interviews, peer mentoring and clear feedback. Explains masking and masking causes burnout, dispels savant myths (savantism ~1–10%), and urges offering accommodations proactively so retention actually improves.
