Welcome to Episode #017 of Perfectly Unfiltered!
Nour is joined by Kim Quinn from the International Brotherhood of Boilermakers and shares her career journey, her motivation, and her vision of the future of women joining the trades.
Kim reveals that boilermakers can expect to earn a high salary from the start, be mentored and guided by their union, and have access to some of the most lucrative positions in the industry, such as at nuclear power plants! They discussed the aptitude and physical requirements, work-life balance, and the path to joining the trade. These opportunities are being vastly missed by women, Kim is passionate about improving gender diversity in the industry.
