Speaking on the occasion, Anshuman Das, CEO and Co-founder of Careernet said “Industry leaders must not only advocate gender parity but also create more employment avenues for female talent to thrive. The first and second career fairs were a great success, and we are extremely grateful for being able to create a platform that brings together like-minded industry leaders who wish to contribute to a brighter, more inclusive future.”

Results from a survey conducted at last year’s event revealed unconscious bias by employers, subpar pay packages and occupational stress as major hurdles in women’s careers. With 70 per cent of respondents looking for growth opportunities from employers, the career fair is an initiative by Careernet to propel Female Talent Forward.
