Women's Empowerment in Tech: Breaking Barriers by Hiring Outside the Box with April Hicke 🎙

Описание: Studies have shown that women are exponentially less likely to apply for a role because they don’t have every single qualification and experience listed in the job description.

That’s just not cool and it’s a huge loss for the workplace.

April shares her journey from foster care to leading Canada's first female-focused tech talent partner.

From being diagnosed with ADHD at eight to revolutionizing how companies think about diversity hiring, April reveals why traditional recruitment kills innovation and how one person looking past her resume changed everything.

Perfect for: Women in tech, job seekers, hiring managers, entrepreneurs, and anyone seeking innovative approaches to career advancement, leadership, and self-improvement through bold action.

Your transformation: Shift from waiting until you're ‘fully qualified’ to understanding that grit, resourcefulness, and potential matter more than checking every box.

Key takeaways:
A job description is a wish list, not a mandate - apply anyway
Adaptability and problem-solving are skills that organizations desperately need
70% of roles likely to be automated are held by women, yet women aren't involved in developing AI solutions
Your core story is more valuable than any bullet point on your resume
