I've already told my story to a few people here, but I'll try to summarise it again.
I graduated from university in 2013, did a six-month internship and ended up resigning because my mind was fucked. That was the only time I ever worked. During my time as a NEET, I ended up getting involved with open source projects and learnt a lot about programming. My dad recommended I create a linkedin account last month and try out some jobs. I ended up following his advice and last week I created my account. Today I received a message from a recruiter offering a position as a programmer, salary 60k/year plus some benefits.
It would be a great opportunity, but I'm pretty sure they'll give up on me as soon as I switch on the camera to do the interview. I'm on the spectrum and I'm terrible at talking to people who aren't my father or brother.
I spoke to the recruiter on the phone, but I didn't make it clear that I'm NEET and that I have problems socialising and talking to people. What do you think? Should I go all the way?
