Watch Employable Me
About the Show
Employable Me, an inspiring documentary series, follows various individuals with different physical disabilities and neurological conditions as they seek steady employment. In each of the six, hour-long episodes, two job seekers from either Montreal or the Greater Toronto Area aim to show that their unique conditions shouldn’t make them unemployable.
Despite sending hundreds of applications and attending countless interviews, many of the Employable Me cast members have never been able to secure a job before. Every member of the cast lives with a condition that presents unique challenges as a job seeker, including Tourette Syndrome, Down Syndrome, vision loss, ADHD, or Asperger Syndrome. Seeking steady employment is no easy task, but these inspiring individuals are determined to overcome their challenges, alter employers’ preconceived notions and perceptions, and change their lives.
Employable Me is produced by Thomas Howe Associates Inc. in partnership with Accessible Media Inc. (AMI) and TVO. It is licensed by all3media.international.
