In a nod to International Women’s Day in March we are highlighting those traditional Male Dominated Careers where women are excelling in each week this month

This week we focus on Web Development

Web Development is one of the fastest growing careers at the moment and the demand for skilled professionals in this field doesn’t seem to be dying down anytime soon. Society is moving more and more towards immersion in the digital age and the ongoing expansion of retail into online shopping is expected to grow faster than any industry. The surge of mobile device usage is also largely a cause of this projected growth, with a great deal of both new and old websites requiring designs and development that support a mobile platform.

Why is it a particularly good career choice for women?

Web Development offers excellent salary prospects and even just as important it offers choices for those women who are looking for flexibility in their careers in the event of raising a family. Many employers will offer working from home or flexible hour packages. There may also be strong opportunities to work for yourself in Waterford and offer services on a contract basis to companies.
