PURPOSE:

We recognize that there are people on the autism spectrum who have the right skillset and education but may otherwise be "screened out" of roles due to lack of work experience or difficulty with interviewing. Our program is designed to reduce barriers of entry that you may face when joining the corporate world and aim to ensure qualified candidates have the same opportunities as neurotypical candidates.

The Autism at Work program professional-level posting is for people on the autism spectrum who have already completed their education, higher education, or a substantial part of their studies.

We know that each person is unique and therefore we aim to provide each person with an experience that fits their needs so they can shine. At SAP, you can be yourself – we value everyone's unique, authentic identities.
