94% of women returnees say upskilling is essential for better career amid crisis

Staying relevant while on a break is a challenge that most women face. A survey conducted by JobsForHer, in association with Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan’s S P Jain Institute of Management  And Research (SPJIMR), to evaluate the need for upskilling before returning to work after a career break revealed a dramatic increase of 23% from last year’s survey where 60% of women opted to upskill.  The results suggest that women professionals are determined to join back the workforce and are actively looking for opportunities for both upskilling and career comebacks.  As the corporate world embraces the hybrid mode of working,, we have seen a 40% increase in the number of career opportunities that are available for women on Jobs For Her from 2020 to 2021.
