In Search of the Perfect Job!
by Dr. Isabelle Tait
Everyone wants the perfect job, right? But does it exist? In 1973 I started out as a junior computer programmer at a
leading manufacturer for industrial controls and it has been quite an experience. In the 1970s and 80s, and even 90s there were very
few women working with computers so the interviewing steps and job requirements were not balanced. My co-workers were, almost exclusively, male.
Even the approach to work, problem solving, relationships, and learning were male centric.
I was very young, and looked even younger. I was very naive as I started out and did not have the role models I needed. But I have learned so much along the way.
This book includes dos and don'ts for finding the perfect job, a section on What was She Thinking? (the mistakes I have made),
and short stories of my journey. I hope you enjoy the book and learn a little along the way. Chapters will be released monthly.
