Interviews: A Double Standard
Entering the job market after college can be a tricky task, especially as a woman. The endless applications to fill out and interviews to attend can feel overwhelming. The following video shows just how different the expectations are for women especially in the interview process.
Being a strong and educated woman in the workplace is
certainly not easy. Yes, it is 2016 and a lot has changed over the years but
the concept of working mothers and women serving as company executives is still
relatively new. Unfortunately, women are still held to very different standards
in the workplace and therefore they are expected to display their achievements
and strengths differently than men.
My challenge to you is to think about how can we fix this?
Do you think the women in this video come off to strong? Why do some perceive
them so differently from the men with the same responses?
