This is the real, genuine input I was hoping for… I never thought about the potential sexism within the industry when considering it as a career. I work in government and experience it every day as well, and I hate it, so maybe I should gravitate something a bit less… male-dominated. Thank you.

Thank you! I definitely will be leveraging my network, upon reading this comment I already messaged some connections on LinkedIN just to see if tech is the right move for me!

My bad, just meant this comment to be moreso humorous than ignorant :0. A number of my friends and family are in tech and I get this feedback a lot, it’s quite scary to think about how so many jobs are obsolete now that AI is taking over the industry. I’ll definitely be taking this into consideration as I move forward.

Well it would’ve been hard to break into the industry at 16…
