International Women's Day

Today is International Women's Day and celebrations are going on around the world to promote women. The company I am doing working experience in (Symantec), invited me to their celebrations.

When I arrived this morning I was put in with girls from a local school who were invited to take part in the company's celebrations. First thing we were given a talk about internet safety and password security. After this we got the chance to meet Katie Taylor. She was really nice and interested in all of us. When any of us asked a question she asked us one in return.

After photos with her we went to the cafeteria where we listened to an interview with Katie Taylor. After this we went back to a conference room where we were give drinks and snacks. Then we had a chance to learn about motherboards. We even got the chance to assemble and dissemble one ourself. We also got to ask our instructors questions on their job and how they got to where they are today.

We then had lunch followed by a talk from more trailblazer women in the company.
