I don't know what your financial situation is, but when I was going to one of the centers that was in connection to the county mental health, they had a job coach (there's another name too that's escaping me atm). They would help with your resume and job search, and of course, being where they were working, your limitations were taken into consideration.
He found me my previous job (I just switched jobs --on my own-- and think I made a huge mistake). The job had a number of things going for it -- it didn't involve working with the public, I didn't have to answer phones, the work was repetitive, and very straightforward. I didn't need to memorize much at all and at the end of the day, I didn't "bring the job home with me". It worked around my particular issues (for the most part. Turned out it was quite triggering for my BDD, but given that I am triggered pretty much 24/7 about it, it's not escapable anyway. Besides, I never talked about the BDD, so they didn't even know about it.) He found the job, and I never would have found it. I didn't even know the place existed and they didn't advertise.
I will say that it took awhile to get in with them, as it was a popular service and only one person doing it, but it might be something worth investigating around you (if you are on medicaid anyway).
