This week I let my interviewee pick a question and she picked the following question. How do men and women differ in your workplace? How does gender matter?
She said she works for subway which is a franchised restaurant and through the years shes worked there she has noticed that her bosses do not hire men. When thye look to hire they always hire women and when she has asked if they ever higher men they simply say yes but they go on and just hire women. I asked why does she think that is and she said she really doesn't know that she thinks its maybe because her bosses think women are cleaner and can make better sandwiches than men. she also said that she found it strange that they were looking through applications and they asked her about a certain application because the applicant had a unisex name which make it strange. Gender does matter in her work place if your not a girl chances are you will not get hired.
