I'd Hire more Women if they Would Apply!

By Ronda Bergman

Elevator Pitch

Maybe you’re the one that’s not really trying? Are you sending signals that say “Guys Only”?

Description

As the founder of tech[inclusive] I have had numerous companies ask me why can’t they get women to apply to any of their openings. They want to diversify but have a “pipeline” problem. My experience as a woman in tech and helping women enter the tech field through tech[inclusive] tells me otherwise.

In this discussion we’ll consider the some of the common reasons women might not apply to certain companies and or job postings, examine some of the “red flags” you might not realize you are waving, explore ways to make the hiring process more inclusive and discuss how to determine where the breakdown may be occurring.
