SheThePeople TV in its article titled What Influence Does Culture Have On The Hiring Of Women? (Online, March 08, 2019) has featured comments from Ms. Kanika Gupta Shori.
According to the article, women’s employment in cities and towns has never gone beyond 25% and the urban women’s labor force participation has historically been much lower than that of their rural counterparts. Kanika Gupta Shori, Co-founder and COO, Square Yards believes “With women on a company’s board, the chances given to interviewees across the table are fairer. With a male and a female candidate of equal caliber and experience, preference will not simply roll towards the male candidate, as would generally happen in case of a homogenous board of male recruiters. Having more women, there is certainty of unbiased gender representation in the overall hiring, ensuring a fair mix of talent and skills, irrespective of gender,” she said.
