Opinions on differential psychology

What are your opinions about being on the "spectrum"? Could the positive effects of high functioning autism be discussed at a job interview or is that something you leave at home with your dog and three cats? I'm just curious to see how the finance community might react to something like this since it has nearly become an essential personality trait for aspiring IT professionals?

I'm also wondering how other types of diagnosis - let it be bipolar or schizophrenia could be brought up during an interview (it's a fact that a lot of high functioning people might have some strong mental-health etiquette - from Newton to Nash - their thoughts helped shape the modern world).
