question about possibly applying for a job
Rhonda Partain
I have thought about applying to a place called Omni Call near me. This is
an answering service. They tell me they use infinity software for their agents to record calls. I can't seem to find any information about accessibility with Jaws. I even went on the Infinity site and sent in a request to tech support, and left a voice mail with no answer. Nothing on the internet answers my question. I see others havve inquired about this software; but no answer as to whether it is accessible or not. I suspect it isn't or someone would have found out by now. So, question is, is it a waste of time to apply when I don't even suspect the software is accessible? Thank you for your thoughts Rhonda Partain. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

You have several possible options to address this issue. First, contact Freedom Scientific to ascertain whether they have knowledge of this software. Second apply for the job and when the issue comes up regarding accessibility contact your state rehab agency to conduct an evaluation to determine whether the software is accessible. third, you could meet with the company to have them work with you to determine whether the software is used and how the job might be adapted. Unfortunately much of the software if it is cloud-based is not accessible though.

or not, could probably find out. Thanks. Rhonda

Rhonda. I would still apply for the job. There is the possibility of

scripts being written in order to make a program or an application accessible with JAWS. I would contact your Vocational Rehabilitation office for help. They should be able to conduct a on-sight job assessment, if the company's willing to cooperate. They should be willing to provide reasonable accommodations for you. Good luck!
