- rvnx 5y agofor example, from a startup interview process: Calico, subsidiary of Alphabet: https://www.calicolabs.com/careers?gh_jid=5785761002 https://www.calicolabs.com/careers?gh_jid=5785761002 > "We are required to measure our progress toward having at least 7% of our workforce be individuals with disabilities. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had a disability. Because a person may become disabled at any time, we ask all of our employees to update their information at least every five years. Identifying yourself as an individual with a disability is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so."
