appreciate these qualities in you.

Hello. A few days ago I posted a job opportunity from a company called FullYou are invited to visit the moderator's Web site at WWW.DavidGoldfield.Info
Circle Group, who is looking for an assistive technology trainer to work
with OVR clients. I have no doubt that the offer is legitimate but I have
never heard of Full Circle Group and I must admit that I was extremely
curious about this company. During my 13 years at Associated Services for
the Blind this name never came up. I wondered if this was a new player in
this space and I wanted to see what I could discover about them.
After doing a bit of searching I did locate a company named Full Circle
Computing, <www.FullCircleComputing.com> located in Exton, PA. Their handle
on Twitter is @fccomputing and the above link will take you to their Web
site. They seem to offer a variety of mainstream training packages but I
could find no reference to anything about assistive technology. Assuming
that this is the same organization who posted the job listing on Indeed.com
I am guessing, perhaps incorrectly, that they are very new to this space.
First, their Web site, as I mentioned, seems to offer no information
regarding assistive technology training. In addition, the job listing
mentions Screen Power and Window-Eyes. Unless there is a newer product
called Screen Power, this was a screen reader offered by Telesensory, which
no longer exists. Window-Eyes, while a bit more current, ceased development
last year and, while the free version for users of Office
<www.WindoweyesForOffice.com> is still legally available, it is,
essentially, a dead product.
I contacted them via their Facebook page to ask if they were the
organization who posted the job listing and gave them updated info on
Window-Eyes and Screen Power.
