Accessibility Statement for Interview Prep Pro
Introduction
At Interview Prep Pro, we are committed to providing a website that is accessible to the widest possible audience, regardless of technology or ability. We are continuously working to improve the accessibility of our website to ensure we provide equal access to all users. Our goal is to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 Level AA.
Our Commitment
We believe that website accessibility is not just a legal requirement but also a moral imperative. An accessible website allows everyone, including individuals with disabilities, to participate fully in the digital world. This includes people with:
- Visual impairments
- Auditory impairments
- Cognitive disabilities
- Motor impairments
- Speech disabilities
By adhering to accessibility standards, we aim to create a positive and inclusive experience for all our users, enabling them to effectively prepare for their interviews and achieve their career goals.
Accessibility Features
We have implemented several features to enhance the accessibility of our website:
- Semantic HTML: We use semantic HTML elements to structure our content, providing a clear and logical structure for screen readers and other assistive technologies. This includes appropriate use of headings (
<h1>
to <h6>
), lists (<ul>
, <ol>
), and landmarks (<nav>
, <main>
, <footer>
).
- Alternative Text for Images: All images have descriptive alternative text (alt attributes) that convey the meaning and context of the image to users who cannot see them. Decorative images have empty alt attributes.
- Keyboard Navigation: Our website is fully navigable using a keyboard. Users can easily access all interactive elements, such as links, buttons, and form fields, using the Tab key. Focus indicators are clearly visible to show which element is currently selected.
- Color Contrast: We have carefully chosen color combinations to ensure sufficient contrast between text and background, making it easier for users with visual impairments to read our content. Our dark theme provides enhanced contrast for users who prefer it.
- Resizable Text: Users can easily resize the text on our website using their browser settings without loss of content or functionality. This allows users with low vision to adjust the text size to their preferred level.
- Clear and Simple Language: We strive to use clear and concise language throughout our website, making it easier for users with cognitive disabilities to understand our content. We avoid jargon and complex sentence structures.
- Form Accessibility: All form fields have descriptive labels that are properly associated with the input elements. We provide clear error messages and instructions to help users complete forms accurately.
- Video Captions and Transcripts: All videos on our website include captions and transcripts, making them accessible to users who are deaf or hard of hearing. The captions are synchronized with the audio and provide accurate representations of the spoken content.
- ARIA Attributes: We use ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) attributes to provide additional information to assistive technologies about the role, state, and properties of interactive elements. This helps screen reader users better understand and interact with dynamic content.
- Consistent Navigation: Our website has a consistent navigation structure, making it easy for users to find the information they need. The main navigation menu is located at the top of each page and provides access to all key sections of the site.
- Skip Navigation Link: A skip navigation link is provided at the top of each page, allowing users to bypass the main navigation menu and jump directly to the main content area. This is especially helpful for keyboard users and screen reader users.
Assistive Technologies
Our website is designed to be compatible with a wide range of assistive technologies, including:
- Screen readers (e.g., JAWS, NVDA, VoiceOver)
- Screen magnifiers
- Speech recognition software

We regularly test our website with these assistive technologies to ensure that it meets the needs of our users. We are committed to addressing any accessibility issues that are identified during testing.
