WITH GROUPS CREATING PROGRAMS TO ENCOURAGE FEMALES TO CONSIDER STEM, WHAT IS THE BIGGEST BARRIER TO ENTRY THAT IS STILL PREVALENT TODAY?
Women are still seen as not getting into Tech, can't code. They are seen doing tasks like recruitment or paperwork over coding. Still, the majority of folks hired for core tech roles are males. We need to remove this myth and encourage more women to come out and do everything they want to do, as that's what they are meant for.
WHAT OR WHO INSPIRES YOU?
My dad has been running a very successful business in India, so I always followed him. He has been my mentor since childhood. He has been a great advisor to me till today.
WHAT IS YOUR PROUDEST MOMENT/ACCOMPLISHMENT?
While there is no single proudest achievement, we are proud of all our candidates/clients who end up landing roles at their dream companies. Every time this happens, it brings joy to our eyes.
