@allisonveronica wrote a piece on this topic a few months back titled, Everyone wants to hire more women in tech, and I have an idea for making that happen. Awesome to see her take this further.
@allisonveronica -- how do you match talent with companies?

@rrhoover Thanks, Ryan! We actually don't do matching. The first thing we do is work with companies who support women in tech, and actively want to hire more women. We look for things like generous parental leave, open/transparent salary formulas, and/or just a good culture for women according to recommendations from other ladies in our group.
Then we write blurbs for each company, including the roles they're hiring for, and share with our group. We include a personal contact on each job posting so that women can reach out directly, and their application doesn't just sit in a pile. The jobs page is PW-protected for women in our group, but if any PH-ers are interested in checking it out, the current password is WINAGAIN.
So excited to share this today!

@allisonveronica excellent! I just shared this with my TA and ERG teams, who will undoubtedly be reaching out to connect our recruiters, women's forum members, and leaders to your network! @rrhoover
