Celebrating International Women's Day, this week in the Balance IT. series of our podcast, our guests are Natalie Pilling and Aleksandra Bis, the two founders of Dare IT, a mentorship program that is meant to help women start working in the IT industry and accelerate the growth of their careers. The technology sector is still struggling with gender equality, with reports by Statista and The National Center of Women and Information Technology showing only 25% of all jobs in IT held by women in 2020. Today I ask Natalie and Aleksandra some questions about the program, why equal representation matters, the impact of mentorship, and how to find the right career path in tech even when you're completely new to it. We even discuss our favorite TV series and why it's the best thing that's happened in the media for women in years.
