Hi all,
I'm 26 (turning 27 late June) and I'm seeking to start my programming, developer career. I am studying a Computer Science with Maths degree part time which I will complete at 29.
Realistically, I'll probably get my first job in 6-7 months time and that too only on £20k/$280000 as my first salary although with experience I can move onto higher paying jobs after as .NET/Java developer.
Who knows, once I get that first job, women may look at me differently.
I'm scared if women look down on my first salary and they do not trust my ambitions to move ahead in my career and earn good salaries 2-3 years after I start my career. I could be out competed with those men in well paid accounting and finance jobs.
The career I'm going into is quite well paid and I'm very ambitious to earn well.
Appreciate your comments
