Career Opportu­nities for Women in Computing

A mentoring session on navigating a career in academia or industry, which I gave online for women students at the ACM India Winter School on Security, Privacy and Trust. There is an icebreaker built around the game of trust, and I work through the balancing acts that shape a research career: breadth versus depth, persevering versus pivoting, saying yes versus saying no, and perfect versus good enough, with quotes and advice from other academics. I also talk about the people who can help (advisors, peers, friends, family, and a professional network), and there is an open Q&A.
