(music) " We turn now to the Working Strategies column of the St. Paul Pioneer Press, by Amy Lindgren, from May 17.

For me, the hardest thing in college was not the subject matter – it was building up the courage to ask questions. Asking questions sounds easy. We ask so many in our lives, but as the only blind person in my college classes, I hated feeling even more different by calling attention to myself. As much as possible, I avoided being the thorn in my professor’s side. At the beginning of my college career, I did not ask any questions in lectures and never utilized office hours, and consequently, I

These job seekers know going in they're different from the candidate the employer was anticipating. And yet they made it to the interview, so something
