Exactly the right amount I need, they are super supportive and always willing to help me out if I am overwhelmed or stuck on something. As a neurodiverse individual this is very important to me

8. Are there extra-curricular activities to get involved in at your work? (For example, any social activities, sports teams, or even professional networking events.)

Not that I’ve been made aware of but there are many opportunities I wouldn’t have known about if it weren’t for work - I go to a drumming class now

9a. Would you recommend Inspire ATA Ltd. to a friend?

Yes

9b. Why?

I’ll be honest they’re the only place that have willingly provided me support and not judged me or asked questions, I request a type of support and they either provide me with it or an alternative. No questions asked, this shouldn’t be such a shock to me but it is

10. What tips or advice would you give to others applying to Inspire ATA Ltd.?

Give them a chance and work with them you will NOT be disappointed
