Maurice Crittendon is the senior specialist for talent acquisition at NSITE. After losing his sight due to diabetic retinopathy, Maurice ventured to Minneapolis for orientation and mobility training before returning to the Washington, D.C. area. Accepted into National Industries for the Blind’s (NIB) Fellowship for Leadership Development, his journey was interrupted by a 6.5-year period on hemodialysis.
In 2017, Maurice received a life-changing kidney and pancreas transplant, enabling him to continue his career at NIB. Maurice leverages his personal journey and professional experience to bridge the gap between talented people with blindness and inclusive employers.
Tune in this week to find out how Maurice developed his passion for recruiting and event management. He details the important work he’s done at NIB and NSITE, his experience in crafting effective resumes, and the details of how NSITE helps people who are blind or have low vision find corporate jobs through the NSITE Connect job board.
