So I think it's really interesting that in this day and age, there are still so very few female software engineers and every not every company, but a lot of companies are even trying really, really hard to prioritize female candidates when they have them. But there just doesn't seem to be enough women on the job market, which is interesting because, you know, over the years, different kind of specialized professions like medicine and law seem to even doubt a bit. But it seems that in the tech industry, specifically when it comes to actual developers and coders, there still seems to be a huge disparity. You know, so what is it? Do women just not want to code? Or what do you think are the reasons for there not being as many women in the software engineering field versus, you know, other specialized fields or even within other parts of the tech industry like sales?
I think being a software engineer would be super, super cool. Um, I don't know if it's gender Pacific, but I don't know why it's, I don't know. That's really interesting question. I would think that women would like to do it, but maybe they don't really welcome women into the space.
That's a great question. I wish I knew the answer. I think thinking back to my computer science classes there was I think only one female that were in the classes back then.
Right, it's absolutely insane that I think still like maybe less than 10% of all coders out there on the job market are women and it's just it it's confusing.
Yeah, that's odd. I just think there needs to be more balance even at the managerial and supervisor level for tech My manager is actually female in the IT industry and she's like amazing.
I completely see your point. I'm a product manager now, but I used to be a software engineer and I kind of switched career because it was just... I didn't feel comfortable being a software engineer and I felt better not being a...
Oh yeah, definitely because of the inequity that I noticed. Like, a lot of the time, if not most of the time, I was the only female person in the room. And the other times I was only the female person of color in the room and I felt really uncomfortable.
I work in cyber security and I've got a female manager and she does a better job than all her counterparts who are male but I just think it comes down to when making the decision what career to go down in
When making a decision will create going on for women to know that tech can be a place for them to go which is changing quite a bit now in the UK I'm not sure about America but yeah
Totally, and I think, you know, it can be a very aggressive field and a lot of a very mansplaining field. But yeah, especially for cyber security, I mean, women are really intuitive and that's important for that.
