At the beginning of July a group of girls joined our Career Insight Day with Paragon Banking Group PLC. The day was all about inspiring future choices by breaking down gender stereotypes, introducing students to diverse role models, and showcasing the exciting range of tech careers available. During the day the girls got involved in a range of exciting activities, including: 👩💻 Interactive sessions on marketing, sustainability & tech trends 🤝 Speed networking with industry professionals 🗣 Exploring career pathways in tech 💷 Pitching creative ideas for our Spring Savings brand It was fantastic to see such enthusiasm and curiosity. The impact: 🔸After the Day, 50% of the students wanted a career in tech 🔸75% of the students shared that the Career Insight Day had strongly influenced their perceptions about what a job in tech actually involves. 🔸100% of the students now have a positive perception of people who work in technology 🔸Teachers rated the day 5/5 for experience A huge thank you everyone who made this amazing day possible.
