A mother who saw her well educated son with a hearing loss be unable to get a job, wrote to a local newspaper. In her letter, she described how her son has had multiple job interviews, but not one offer. The country? Malaysia.

Discrimination is alive and well, no matter what country you are in.
You can have excellent educational credentials, and an excellent job history where people read your resume and go WOW, but a severe hearing loss can end a good career and prevent you from finding another job. I know this firsthand and spent 2 years trying to find another hospital C.F.O. job after 22 years in the role with outstanding financial improvements whereever I worked. Poor communication skills were a career killer.
