Careers for Tech Girls in E-Commerce

by Jackson Nieuwland

Overview

You can buy anything online these days, but just because you're not taking your shopping cart up to the counter and handing money to a cashier doesn't mean there aren't people behind the scenes making those transactions happen. Since the majority of e-commerce sales are driven by women, e-commerce companies are realizing they need more women working in the industry. This accessible guide introduces girls to the world of e-commerce, describing the different jobs available in the field and providing practical advice on job preparation, as well as tips for dealing with the realities of working in the male-dominated tech industry.
