New opportunities, new directions

Article Abstract:

The professional opportunities for women in accounting, finance, and banking have significantly improved; most companies have genuinely accepted women on their management teams. Employment agencies offer women a desirable path to management for most companies, rather than the prospective employees, pay the agencies' fees, and women can use agencies to filter out jobs that do not meet their criteria. The types of agencies include outplacement firms, career counselors, and recruiters.
