In celebration of International Women’s Day, we want to spotlight the accomplishments of women in the workplace.
In honor of this occasion, we had the opportunity to speak with women leaders from across Stefanini’s global network. From juggling the responsibilities of their personal life and their career, to offering advice to women around them, our colleagues shared their experiences and insights on what it takes to succeed in the IT field.
We had a chat with Nicoleta Giradu, our Senior Software Engineer from Romania and found out inspiring insights. Read everything below:
How does it feel to be working in the IT sector as a woman?
Nicoleta Giradu: “For me, the IT sector is the right place, so I feel good. I’ve always loved discovering and learning new things, and the IT industry is always on the move, so you never get bored. When you don’t like something the way it is, you can always improve it and do it your way.”
How do you manage to balance your personal life with your career?
Nicoleta Giradu: “I am not the most orderly person, so I can’t keep a strict schedule; sometimes I can have the best ideas of making a soup late at night, but I try as much as possible to spend my after-work hours with family and friends. When I feel the need to detach myself from everything, my motorcycle is the best therapy.”
What is the most important advice you would give to all women around you?
Nicoleta Giradu: “Never stop dreaming and always fight for your dream to come true!”
What are the 3 words that best describe you as a woman?
Nicoleta Giradu: “Dreamer, adventurous and sincere.”
What does the International Women day mean to you?
Nicoleta Giradu: “International Women’s Day means recognizing and applauding the work that my colleagues and friends do every day (in all areas of activity) while also honoring all women who stood up and fought against gender inequality.”
