I am in a wheelchair. What is the best way to find telecommuting jobs?

I don't mean these scams posted in small business or other Yahoo Answers sections. I am seeking meaningful telecommuting work at Fortune 500 companies. I work in marketing research. Thanks

1. Call the HR dept. of companies you are interested in and ask them about jobs that allow disabled people to telecommute. If you call the state personel board, they can direct you to programs for people with disabilities. CA has a LEAP program that allows people to bypass the normal job testing and placement routine for office work. I'm sure there are tons of other resources you can check with, too. Good luck.

2. Search not only on engines, but on company websites for jobs that match your experience. Include in your cover letter that you prefer to telecommute and that you use a wheelchair, but that you are able to come in to the office for trainings, meetings, etc. and that you have been successful in telecommuting in the past. Submit your resume and call the HR department to follow up after a couple of days. Many companies may not condsider telecommuting when posting an ad, but when presented with a good match for the position, they will consider it.
