Neurodivergent Networking

Welcome to Neurodivergent Networking Switzerland!

Join us for an online event to network, share professional experiences, and build professional relationships with fellow neurodivergent (ND) individuals.

• Tired of pretending you don't desperately need a job?
• Want to feel validated instead of getting generic advice from well-meaning neurotypicals?
• Afraid of being perceived as "unemployable" due to your communication style?
• Need to expand your professional network, without masking?

Join the event and connect with like-minded individuals in a supportive and inclusive virtual environment, where you don't need to fit in, because you already belong!

Whether you're Autistic, Attentional-Divergent (ADHD), or are marinated in any other neurospicy sauce, this event is for you!

Requirements:

• English-speaking, ND humans who are looking for a job or simply expanding their professional network in Switzerland - self-diagonosed are welcome!
• If you're not neurospicy, but want to meet neurodivergent professionals, please contact the organizer before registering. The goal is to put ND needs first and avoid extractivism, i.e. unpaid labor - emotional or otherwise. Recruiters please contact organizer before registering, same reason.
• Having some knowledge about Google Meet, as there will be breakout rooms, a whiteboard, turning mic or camera on/off

Accessibility info:

• Platform: Google Meet
• Live subtitles (CC) available
• Speaking optional: you're free to use the chat 100% of the time if that feels right for you, AAC for the win!
• Stimming is welcomed: Move as much as you need, bring your fidgets or plushies, co-regulation is paramount for connection <3
• Camera on/off: judgment-free, you decide.
• Leave whenever you need to: no need to say why, your autonomy comes first!

Full event agenda, discomfort agreement, and Google Meet link will be shared once you register via the Online Event Page here on Eventbrite. A week before the event, you will receive a reminder email with all the information.

By participating in this event, you will:

• Leave with a clear map of "who knows what" in the group, identifying potential mentors, collaborators, referrals, or accountability buddies.
• Move beyond just connecting to creating and fostering relationships built on shared goals and interests, which can lead to concrete post-event collaboration.
• Connect as both seeker and provider of valuable industry knowledge.
• Get +50 free resources to support your job search.

Let's learn from each other, celebrate our strenghts, and empower one another <3

Don't miss out on this opportunity to connect with other neurodivergent folks who are riding the same struggle bus as you.

Sign up now and get ready to expand your network in a welcoming and understanding environment.

A minimum of 10 people need to sign up for the event; otherwise, it will be canceled.
