True.

Direct evidence that an employer refused to hire someone because they are deaf is rare, so claimants usually must rely on circumstantial evidence (comparators, timing, inconsistent reasons, pretext) and statutory burden-shifting frameworks (e.g., under the ADA), which can make proving discriminatory intent challenging.
