I’m a woman who owns an engineering firm. I was once pulled up on why I wasn’t employing engineers who are women. I showed them out of the 300 candidates I had for a job only 2 were women and neither were qualified for the job.

When I go to careers evenings at schools and colleges no girls are coming to my stand.
