#MakeTechPurple believes in supporting women at every stage of their journey. NIKHILA's transition from a career break to a Data Analyst at Cisco shows that with the right resources, women can thrive in tech. Read her inspiring story of how Make Tech Purple helped her regain confidence and build the skills to succeed. "Make Tech Purple has been instrumental in helping me find a job after taking a long break from my career. As a mother, re-entering the workforce after stepping away to focus on raising my child was challenging. Despite my efforts, I struggled to find the right opportunity that aligned with my skills and experience. Make Tech Purple not only provided me with valuable career guidance but also helped me regain my confidence and navigate the job market. Through their program, I had the opportunity to learn SQL and Python programming, which significantly enhanced my coding skills. This allowed me to work on a project using applications like Streamlit, further strengthening my technical expertise. Their support made all the difference in helping me secure a role that aligns with both my professional aspirations and personal commitments. Today, I am proud to say that I have found a job as a Data Analyst at Cisco. I would also like to take a moment to thank BayOne and their team, specifically Neha Malhotra, for her exceptional support. Her professionalism, dedication, and genuine care made a lasting impact on me. Neha went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, and her commitment to her clients has been truly empowering. Additionally, I’d like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Han Nguyen for highlighting my story and helping me secure this incredible opportunity. Han’s support and belief in my potential were instrumental in making this milestone possible.” #MakeTechPurple #UnstoppableHer #WomenInTech #Returnship #WorkforceReentry #ReturntoWork #SQL #Python #WomenInSTEM #DataAnalyst #CohortEngineers #CohortProgram

This shift didn’t happen overnight; it’s the result of ongoing efforts in diversity, equity, and inclusion across the industry. Progress is possible, but it requires continued commitment from all of us. Let’s keep moving forward to build workplaces where everyone has a seat at the table. #WomenInLeadership #DEI #DiversityMatters #LeadershipEquality
