Sometimes, but don't tell anyone. Sometimes, but don't tell anyone. Christine is a director of development for a recruitment agency specializing in computer science, multimedia and telecommunication. There are three times as many men as women working in the fields of information and telecommunication technology. This is the result of orientation, education and personal taste, but also of a lack of exposure to these fields.
Women think they'll end up spending their life in front of a screen.
However, these fields also require creativity and communication skills. For example, tech jobs that require people skills include business advisors, trainers and educators, consumer service reps, multimedia publishers and network managers. If women are shying away from techological education, they could be missing out on fields with high hiring potential and attractive salaries. Even companies are starting to balance teams that are strongly masculine. Women are serious, rigorous, flexible, and have creative skills that are in high demand.
