Job searching for those within the LGBTQ+ spectrum can present additional challenges, especially for those individuals beyond the gender binary. As there is no blanket federal non-discrimination protection for LGBTQ+ job seekers, it is important to understand the applicable discrimination protections available in the state you are applying. You will also want to be aware of discrimination policies in place for housing and public accommodations. It is also important to note that employers within discriminatory states may have higher standards when it comes to equal employment opportunity (EEO) protections. The University Career Center counseling staff is Safe Zone trained and is able to help you navigate these issues in a welcoming and judgement free zone.
