This title seeks to break that trend, presenting young women who have a knack for technology with the various career options available in the tech sector. Four primary career sectors are addressed: communications, aerospace and defense, green technology, and biotechnology. Career essentials are also addressed—including job hunting, writing a solid résumé, mastering an interviewing, and networking—as are the challenges faced by women in the workforce (and how to overcome them!).
