These Jobs Have the Biggest Pay Gaps for Women
These Jobs Have the Biggest Pay Gaps for Women When it comes to paying women equally to men for their work, most industries still have a long way to go. We know that progress has been slow since the Equal Pay Act was passed in 1963 across sectors and that for women of color, the gap in pay compared to white men is even larger than that of white womenâs. As we mark Equal Pay Day on April 2 this year, many are looking to the Paycheck Fairness Act (which bars employers from asking for previous salary information) to help shrink the gender wage gap. But the data is not particularly encouraging. While women are being hired in greater numbers for historically male-dominated professions â" such as financial managers and surgeons â" women across those industries arenât reaching the high earning power of their male peers. In some areas, we are seeing pay equalize between men and women, but it still holds true that smaller wage gaps tend to exist in female-dominated, lower-wage work. So, if youâre a woman in a traditionally female job â" say, nursing â" you stand a better chance of earning close to what your male peers do; if youâre stepping into a traditionally male-dominated field (surgury, e.g.) the inverse is true. Here, we take a look at the careers that tend to have the largest and smallest pay gaps between men and women. Jobs With the Largest Gender Wage Gaps Financial Advisor The finance industry as a whole is one of the most egregious offenders when it comes to not paying women equally. Last yearâs report from financial technology company SmartAsset found that, of 10 occupations with the largest pay gap between men and women, four are in the finance industry. In the lucrative career of financial advisor, womenâs pay ratio is the smallest, with few female financial advisors reaching the earning power of their male counterparts. As financial advisors, women earn, on average, 55 percent of a manâs salary. Financial Manager Financial Manager is ranked as the career with the second largest wage disparity, with womenâs pay hovering at 65 percent of what men make. So women are entering the financial sector in greater numbers, but they arenât being paid what men are. Forbes reports that while 46 percent of financial services employees are women, only 15 percent are represented at the executive level. Women who worked full-time in the areas of âsecurities, commodities, and financial services sales agentsâ fared lowest, according to the Institute for Womenâs Policy Research. In 2018, women in those specific roles pulled in 63.9 percent of menâs weekly median earnings. Physician/Surgeon Outside of the finance industry, female physicians and surgeons face the largest gender wage discrepancy. A recent American Association of University Women (AAUW) report found that female physicians and surgeons are paid 71 cents for every dollar men in the field make. That accounts for a 29 percent wage gap and falls 9 cents behind the â80 cents on the dollarâ women statistically earn. The damage is significant. The gender pay gap in this field results in a loss of a whopping $500 billion a year for women working in these fields. RELATED: Timeâs Up Takes on Rampant Sexism and Inequality in Health Care Retail Supervisor Retail sales supervisors (sometimes called âfirst line supervisorsâ) typically oversee sales workers and inventory in the retail sector. While women make up 42 percent of this sector, men who hold these roles are out-earning women by nearly 30 percent. The median annual salary for men in this position is estimated at $46,332, while womenâs median salary hovers at $33,000 â" counting for a $13,000 annual pay discrepancy. Even more disturbing? The gender pay gap here appears to be widening. From 2017 to 2018, the weekly wage of male retail supervisors climbed 4 percent, while women saw only a 1.4 percent increase. Jobs With the Smallest Wage Gaps for Women Academic Counselor A recent study of 120 industries found that the only occupation where women are out-earning men is in the field of counseling. Other studies have found that, specifically, for academic counselors, there is almost no difference in base pay: Women earn $0.99 for every $1.00 men earn, according to Money.com. Construction Worker Historically, the construction industry has been a male-dominated sector. The average annual pay of a construction worker in the U.S. is holding at $33,052, as more women are being drawn to the industry. Women in construction earn an average of 95.7 percent of what their male counterparts do, making it one of the jobs with the lowest gender-based wage gap in the U.S. Nurse While female nurses make less than male nurses, even in an industry that is overwhelmingly dominated by women, the gap is smaller than in other industries. Female registered nurses were found to earn over 90 percent of their male counterpartsâ wages, adding up to a little over $5,000 yearly gap on average, USA Today reports. But while that pay gap statistically seems small, men in nursing are are walking away with $150,000 more over their career lifetime.

Why You Cant Be Yourself During Job Interviews - Work It Daily
Why You Cant Be Yourself During Job Interviews - Work It Daily The job interview process should be relatively simple because you just are sitting down with some people and talking about yourself. How hard can that be? Makes one wonder why, at the end of it all, millions struggle to get the job offer and often find themselves searching online for articles (such as this one) that will help them âpassâ their next job interview. I'd like to tell you that, since you just have to talk about yourself, the best advice I can give you is to just be yourself. The potential employer is just asking questions about you and your background, so just be honest and answer them. While that would make the most sense, sadly and unfortunately, this is not the answer for most job seekers. Why You Can't Be Yourself During Job Interviews The problem lies in the simple fact that there truly are correct answers to interview questions and there are very incorrect ones. In fact, one wrong answer and you can get tossed out of the candidate pool within mere seconds of the words coming out of your mouth. Employers are searching for a certain brand of employees and you either are that brand or you aren't. But if you arenât (like most people), and you need and/or want a job, you will likely resort to learning what to say and do, the âfake it' during the interview. This is the truth about the job interview process because the one who says and does all the right things the best, gets the job. The Ideal Brand The ideal brand employers are looking for is a person who has the skills to do the job (obviously) but also one who displays high levels of integrity, accountability, flexibility, innovation, enthusiasm, passion, and presence. This brand also encompasses a person who is a strong and effective communicator, committed to excellence, consistently goes above and beyond, and walks the talk in all that they do. In a job interview, specifically in behavior based or situational questions, potential employers are looking for mounds of evidence that show you represent this ideal brand. Answers without this evidence are typically wrong answers. This may not be 'new' information, but the problem is it actually matters a lot whether or not you are such a person. If you can honestly look at yourself and see that you may not exhibit all those qualities consistently on a high level, what you do with that knowledge will determine your career success â" in the job market and in the workplace. Only approximately 20% of any given staff authentically exemplifies this brand. A lot of these skills are mentioned as ârequiredâ in job postings but since they are soft skills versus hard skills most people don't consider or care if they have those skills, nor do they realize how important they truly are. The people who get job offers either have those skills at a relatively high level or they are really good at faking it in a job interview. The âfake it to make itâ people are the ones who learned how to âactâ like a person who has those skills and became really good at it. The ones who fake it came to understand that one must say and do all the right things in their interviews - regardless of the truth â" and for the most part, they are right. This plays a big part in why the majority of the workforce ends up disengaged at work. Many get hired based upon passing themselves off as someone they are not and therefore immediately cause a disconnect, with their manager, when they are hired. The disconnect exists between the people they said they were in the interview and the people they truly are at work. If you show up at work as a quieter individual who doesnât do much more than is expected and rarely works overtime, thatâs a big difference if (in the interview) you described yourself as an outgoing people person who always goes above and beyond and works a lot of long and crazy hours. Your manager will likely be put off by this disconnect and thatâs where the friction begins. Furthermore, you may spend a good part of your day trying to actually be the person you said you were in the interview because you know this is the best way to keep your job and/or get promoted. This is a painful and exhausting way to go about your job because it rarely works as you would hope it would because itâs not authentic. And you canât possibly be fully engaged in your work, when operating in this manner, because you have to disengage with yourself, just to pull it off. For example, you might volunteer for extra work you donât want to do, spout off opinions you donât believe in, or do work in a way that doesnât fit your beliefsâ" all to try to pretend to be what you believe is expected of you. This is the âfake it to make itâ epidemic that is rampant in the job market and in the workforce. And whether you realize it or not, pretending to be someone you aren't will chip away at your self-esteem every single day until there is little left. While you may not consciously think about it, it hurts to believe you canât get hired or arenât âacceptedâ as who you truly are. You believe this because if you didnât, you would have been completely yourself in the interview. The job interview is truly a game. The only way to win the game is to look hard at the soft skills listed above that describe the ideal candidate, and understand that to succeed in Corporate America you do need to have those qualities/soft skills developed at a pretty high level. Most of us have those skills at various levels- strong in some and weak in others. But very few have them all authentically and consistently at a high level. When you think about it, it makes perfect sense that if you have to stretch the truth about your character, in a job interview, then the person you say you are is probably the person you need to be in order to succeed in that job. When you make the decision to actually put personal development as a priority in your life and work hard at becoming the person you said you were in the job interview, thatâs when your real success will begin.

Working At Morgan Stanley
Working At Morgan Stanley Below is an article originally written by PowerToFly Partner Morgan Stanley, and published on December 11, 2018. Go to Morgan Stanleys page on PowerToFly to see their open positions and learn more.Keren Ehrenfeld began her career as a summer intern in Morgan Stanleys Toronto offices. 15 years later, she is a Managing Director and finding the room to be herself in a challenging workplace.On the occasion of Morgan Stanleys Global Women Managing Directors Conference, some of the attendees took the opportunity to discuss challenges, support systems and career trajectories within the firm.Keren Ehrenfeld is currently responsible for Morgan Stanleys investment grade health care and transportation practice within the Fixed Income Capital Markets group. For her, as in any career, there have been challenges along the way. Karen credits her longevity at the firm to the opportunities shes had to explore her different strengths. One of the biggest chall enges in almost all industries today is achieving gender parity. Gender diversity provides huge benefits in the workplace. pWhile some industries have made significant advancements in gender diversity, some industries lag further behind... and the construction industry is well-known for being in the latter category. If someone says, construction workers, youll likely picture a group of men in yellow hard hats analyzing an architects plans or laying bricks on top of a scaffold. And men at work signs only help to reinforce this image.pThis stereotype is rooted in reality. When was the last time you actually spotted a woman on a construction site? Or hired a female plumber or carpenter? Your answer is most likely never. In fact, the Bureau of Labor Statisticsreports that only 3.4% of the total of 8.3 million construction employees are women.pBut the construction industry has a lot more to offer than steel-toed boots and hard hats, and it needs women to help advance the industry in this era of rapid change. Here are 5 reasons why women joining the workforce or looking to make a pivot should consider a career in construction.h21. Fuel Innovation/h2pNot only is diversity the socially and morally right thing to do, but it is also actually an excellent business strategy. pResearch presented in the Harvard Business Reviewshows that diverse teams develop more innovative ideas. This is further supported by a study conducted by Gallupon the performance of gender-diverse teams versus single-gender teams, which found that the difference in backgrounds and perspectives led to better business performance and problem-solving. h22. Capitalize on Demand/h2pThe construction industry is currently experiencing a labor shortage. The industry itself is booming and projected to be one of the fastest-growing industries, with total spending projected to exceed $1.45 trillion in 2023/a. However, most construction companies are unable to meet the rising demand. pAccording to the Associated General Contractors of America/a, more than 80% of contractors are experiencing difficulties filling hourly craft positions that represent the bulk of the construction workforce.pAnd demand isnt limited to individual contributor roles. Given the industry boom, there are a number of open stable and high-paying roles (any project managers out there?) waiting for the right candidateh23. Leadership Opportunities/h2pAccording to the Bureau of Labor Statistics/a, women compose only 7.7% of the total 1 million managerial positions in construction.br/pBut given the highly collaborative nature of construction work, more women in leadership roles would help drive innovation and enhance productivity.Furthermore, as a woman in construction in a leadership position, youd have the unique opportunity to drive change for the industry and make it a more attractive option for other women.h24. High-Income Potential/h2pSalaries for many skilled positions in construction ar e on the rise, making a construction career a prime choice for women looking for a high-paying job,pThe 2018 Construction Craft Salary Surveyconducted by the National Center for Construction Education and Research revealed that salaries for many skilled craft areas are increasing. Project managers and project supervisors topped the list at $92,523 and $88,355, respectively. The next set of highest-paying jobs include those of combo welders ($71,067), instrumentation technicians ($70,080), pipe welders ($69,222), power line workers ($68,262) and industrial electricians ($67,269). Of the 32 categories of workers in the survey, 19 positions earned an average salary of $60,000 or higher.h25. Sense of accomplishment/h2p The construction industry can give employees a unique sense of achievement. Yes, the job is stressful and the work can be demanding, but nothing beats the feeling of being able to build something from the ground up. pHow many professionals in other industries can point at a school, a hospital, or a skyscraper and say I helped build that?pThe construction industry has a long way to go in combating gender bias and supporting women in the workforce, but given the current demand for workers, theres no better time to pick up a sledgehammer (figurative or literal) and smash the gender stereotypes plaguing the construction industry.
