Thoughts from Qualcomm Employees
“I felt a bit overwhelmed as I was
applying for jobs and getting very few
responses. I completed a transition
program prior to my separation from
the military, but I still lacked the skills
necessary to find a job. Through this
program I was not only able to develop
my technical skills, but also the
professional skills needed to succeed
in the corporate environment. After
completing the program, I feel like I am
not only capable of finding a good
position within my industry, but I feel
capable of finding the best job for me
to work to my full potential.
Qualcomm and the QCIP – Warriors
program is an excellent blueprint for
many other companies to follow.“
“Qualcomm’s support of programs like
‘Day in a Chair’ and the “Career
Connections for Youth’ help raise
awareness of the daily challenges faced
by those with a disability. But more
importantly, these programs show that
individuals with disabilities can be
productive members of the workforce.”
