Organizations who share your values can view your involvement with appreciation for your shared vision. <\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">While very regrettable, it is important to note that some employers could be unsupportive. It&#8217;s also possible the initial person screening your resume may be unsupportive, but the organization as a whole is much more welcoming.<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Based on what you\u2019ve disclosed on your resume, determine how to talk about those experiences in an interview as they relate to the position. Anticipate the questions you might get and practice your answers (but remember, asking questions related to identity is unlawful in a job interview).<\/span><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An interview is also a good time to find out more about the organization\u2019s policies. When you can, ask the human resources representative about diversity training at the organization, gender-affirming health care, or nondiscrimination policies. Or, wait to ask the human resources representative after you have been offered a position.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hrc.org\/resources\/entry\/coming-out-at-work\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">HRC Coming Out at Work Toolkit<\/span><\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lgbtmap.org\/equality-maps\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Equality Maps <\/span><\/a><br><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/outandequal.org\/\">LGBT CareerLink by Out &amp; Equal<\/a><br><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/outandequal.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Out &amp; Equal Workplace Advocates<\/span><\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/11063251990\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Facebook: Macalester Scots Pride<\/span><\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.macalester.edu\/multiculturallife\/lgbtqia-programming\/outandproud\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Out And Proud: Faculty And Staff At Macalester<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Transgender Resources<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/transequality.org\/know-your-rights\/employment-general\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Know Your Rights<\/span><\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.minnstate.edu\/careerexploration\/interactive\/workbook_lgbtq.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Trans Employment Program<\/span><\/a><br><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><a href=\"https:\/\/transgenderlawcenter.org\/legal\/employment\">Transgender Law Center<\/a><br><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tsroadmap.com\/reality\/jobtrans.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Trans Road Map Transition at Work Resources<\/span><\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Career Exploration assists Macalester students in navigating your career options, including questions of if, when, and how you choose to disclose (as part of a search or after being hired).
