One simple question... Why is a visually impaired candidate not given an opportunity to give his/her exam independently by making the online test accessible and replacing the visual questions with a set of verbal ones.
Is technology not supportive enough or are we fighting the battle in the wrong direction giving a opportunity to the free riders to spoil our case further in the eyes of employers leaving people with vision impairment weaker rather strengthening them.
