Where are the women at?? It has been nearly 6 months since I have joined Applause IT. In this time I have spoken to many excellent candidates. However, I have noticed that the majority of those have been males. I want to understand why this is? Statistically only 26% of the tech work force are female which is shocking compared to the recruitment industry where that percentage is significantly higher at around 50%. I would like to do more research into Women in Tech in the coming months and see what I can do as a recruiter to change this percentage. Please comment below your opinions and suggest what we can do more of to advocate Women in Tech. #womenintech #diversityintech #womenempowerment #womenintheworkplace

It doesn’t matter what other people think about you. Since it’s a new month, let’s take a moment to honor all the great women who work in tech. Your skills and hard work are very valuable. Remember that just because other people don’t see it doesn’t mean you’re less important. Remember that you make a difference by being great and moving forward. Have a great month! 🥳🥳🥳 #newmonth #july #happynewmonth #womenintech #womeninstem

Despite recent tech layoffs impacting progress, there is reason for optimism. Conversations about working parenthood and gender differences in the workplace are increasing. Advocacy for parental leave and reasonable policies is gaining traction, addressing a critical aspect of the equation. Achieving parity alone is not enough; power dynamics and inclusion must be addressed. The vision is a world with diverse leadership models, where women are heard and respected. #GenderEquality #WomenInTech #TechIndustry

[Testimony of a woman in Tech 🎙️] The under-representation of women in the tech sector is not inevitable. In 2023, Berger-Levrault will be recruiting 67% women for managerial positions in the tech sector.

Recognizing International Women's Day and Women's History Month is merely the starting point. At ZoomInfo Labs, our commitment extends beyond these observances. We celebrate the contributions of women every single day. This holds a significance for me as I envision a world where my daughters, and all women, receive equitable compensation for their work. ZoomInfo has devoted considerable effort to ensuring gender parity in pay is the norm, and we’ll continue to invest in this area. Several women who inspire me every day: Millie Beetham is a force, and is one of the most talented people in GTM. She has pushed the industry forward and has a never ending appetite for inventing the future of GTM, AI and more. Mariana Jacques is one of the most determined, creative and resilient people I know. Moving here from Brazil at an early age was just the beginning. She’s been incredibly successful in a male-dominated field, but also is obsessed with feedback, learning and trying new things. Annabelle Mangin for her incredible curiosity and passion for what we’re building at ZI Labs. And for taking on new challenges without missing a step. Amanda Ingram is an incredible mom, wife, sister, daughter, friend, educator and more. She’s dedicated her teaching career to helping under-resourced communities in DC and Oakland. But most importantly, she’s teaching the next generation to seek fairness, work hard and be kind. Here's a picture of our two daughters. My hope for them? To earn their worth in a world where equal pay isn't just a rally cry, and the biggest threat is deciding whether they want to be the boss of robots or let AI do the heavy lifting 😀

Today is #WomensEqualityDay, a day that commemorates the significant milestone in 1920 when women in America were granted the right to vote. This reflection takes on added meaning in the tech industry, where the underrepresentation of women is evident – with just 1 in 4 software engineers being women, according to https://lnkd.in/e3rEPQ25. Even with efforts to increase diversity and inclusion, the technology industry remains a male-dominated field. However, at Smoothstack, we break the mold, transforming lives by creating access, building equity, and launching technology careers to serve the world's best companies and agencies. Join us to break the gender bias! Together, we can eliminate the barriers that women face in the tech industry. We extend our appreciation to Julie Gerrard, Angel Johnson, Michelle Krier, and Meredith Kaur for their valuable participation in this video. #EqualRights #GenderEqualityMatters #WomenInLeadership #DiversityAndInclusion #WomenRights #WomenInTech #WeAreSmoothstack

20% of women over the age of 35 who work in the tech industry are still in junior positions, which may be a contributing factor to the number of women leaving tech after this age (50%). Gender-equal promotion and progression is a huge factor in the retention of women in tech. But what can you do as an individual? Our Women in Tech DEI Toolkit explores the actions that both individuals and companies can take to address this issue, including calling out exclusionary behaviour, keeping track of ‘glue work’, and driving clear communications.
