Treat women techies resume profitable than men

According to statistics, men apply for a job at the time when their qualifications are equal to only 60% of the requested requirements. Ie a man willing to take a risk and "the right material to absorb" in a short time, filling cones again and again. But women, if applying for a job, almost always have a 100% qualification required for the position. This conclusion was made Research Centre Hewlett Packard in the study of their internal structures and applications from candidates of both sexes in the relevant technical field.

It was also conducted a simple survey of men and women, where they were asked just one simple question: "If you see that it is not fully pass on the requirements of the job, why do you refuse to apply?" "And you can believe it or not, but the answer: "I am afraid that not cope with the work," - not so popular.

Analysis of the survey

Approximately 46.4% of men and 40.9% of women said they do not want to waste your time on interviews, consultations and meetings, as they believe that this position will give a more qualified.

In other words, people in many cases are not worried about the work itself, and duties, and the process of interviews and meetings, which do not always relate well to the candidate if he has some problems in their knowledge. Ie people are afraid to appear ignorant and get his side a number of negative and ridicule.

About 20% of men and 13.1% of women answered that they respect the specialists of the personnel department, and do not want to spend his time working as clearly defined requirements in the job description.

You know perfectly well that the real requirements for the job and the level of the candidate, which is suitable for the post, almost always the same. And experts HR playing some game with the candidates, vytorgovyvaya conditions and the expected level of wages. So, women do not understand these games and will abandon the job, rather than follow the rules of the game. Do you want to hire a woman - write to the appropriate requirements of the job.

Approximately 12.7% of men and 21.6% of women said that they are afraid to be dismissed as soon as the company finds a suitable candidate for the position.

Women are less prone to frequent job changes, which leads to the need to guarantee their employment. And most of all for such a guarantee is necessary to the full awareness of their own capabilities. This man can come to try, and in case of failure are already "experienced" go elsewhere. Women also prefer not to exchange places, and immediately approach the matter responsibly.

Approximately 12.4% of men and 9.7% of women said that they are not afraid to do the job.

Finally, 8.5% of men and 15% women close the ad after seeing qualification requirements, they do not have. They do not even think about the possibility to apply.

The behavior of women when applying for a job playing the role of the three psychological principles:

The woman feels some competition in relation to men. If the role of a manager or designer for many resigned, then see the girl as a developer is not all ready. This leads to some women need to prove to everyone that it is suitable for this position, as above all to pieces.

Women are more psychologically follow the rules. High focus on the little things and following the rules helps women identify the essence of the proposed work and a clear assessment of all the items resume and vacancies.

Women are not looking perspective place and at the right moment of time. We all know that to get in the normal position the company almost always need to go through several circles of hell, working in various offices and studios that even the word "decent" can not be called. So, women prefer to initially receive adequate space and not work for the future.

Personal experience: h5>
Our company currently operates two women technical focus, one for technical support, the second - in the department of application development. It's safe to say that they are true professionals who are doing their job perfectly. But both were predshestvuyuschiybekgraund that simply leaves no chance to deny them these job openings. They were ready at 100%.
