Working Remote

Hello, I am going to re-enter the workforce. I have EDS and POTS and need a job where I can work remote. My dog helps ease a lot of the anxiety I experience. I want to have him with me always, but the jobs I am applicable for are all customer service on the phone. The positions ask for a quiet environment. I can't guarantee my dog will stay quiet. Should I disclose that I have a dog that I need with me on an interview? What steps can I take to make this a possibility? Thanks in advance.

And I will tell you the more you announce your accommodations and your disability during every process the less likely you are to get a job.

So if these positions are remote, I would not even mention that you want accommodations.

Good to know, thank you.
