So whatever flavour of tech, whatever level, if you value connection and support, The F Factor community has your back.
What is the F Factor?
The F Factor community welcomes and celebrates all women working in tech careers:
WOMEN DEFINITION// Women – transgender and cisgender, all those who experience or have experienced oppression as women, including non-binary and gender non-conforming people and all those who identify as women. Self-definition is at the discretion of the individual.
Inclusion & belonging
F Factor Mentorship Program
A mentor is like a career coach, therapist, friend and cheerleader all rolled into one! Essentially, it’s someone that has experience, wisdom and a perspective that can help you grow professionally. A mentor and mentee connect regularly and discuss career challenges, goals and successes. And it works both ways - mentoring others is hugely rewarding too!
The F Factor’s mentorship program (sponsored by Google) has helped hundreds of women advance their careers since it began in 2019. And studies have shown that people who are mentored receive higher compensation, better promotions and increased job satisfaction. So what are you waiting for?
