The number of employed women is on a significant rise, and this trend is not only visible in the metros but across India. However, we are nowhere close to being the leading nation in terms of women in the workforce. We have not moved out of the 'it's a man's world' phase yet because job opportunities are generally concentrated in a few cities and localities and work hours are generally fixed. For many female students, it is very challenging to travel long distances late evenings after college to get work experience necessary for applying to jobs later on. For many women with families to look after, leaving the house and kids to work in an office for eight to nine hours in a day is an impossible task.
Now, imagine if you didn't have to do that! Imagine, the couch in your home is the office chair, your travel to a corner in your living room, and your kitchen, being the office pantry. We're not saying this makes life more comfortable, but it could help make it a bit simpler to get to work. Here are 3 job opportunities that help women strike a balance between working and studying or any type of responsibility because they can all be done from home.
