Yeah, there is a discrimination based on knowledge level and how willing one is towards hard work it requires.

Nothing Other than that.

A post on this site said that roohi agarwal got a job offer of 18 lakhs. Being a girl i am concerned about my safety. But when it comes to job they see your knowledge, i think so.

thanks guys...but roohi agarwal is the exception...bcos she managed to get a rank....and everybody can't be a rank holder...i want to know in a general case....if i choose chartered accountancy as a career....being a girl...do it provide the same career growth to me....as in the other professions...

Now days thinking is changing and women are given more priority due to their sincerity, Hard working and management skills. Though some firms may give priority to males which require frewuent travelling, staying outstation for outstation assignments etc.

But overall in professional courses like CA, if you have knowledge, than even discrimination wont stop you from acheiving your gaol.

Whosoever has warned you about this is either not seen the placement statistics or is unaware of the placement process....in fact I can say you that female canditates in accountancy profession gets more attractive job than male candidate given the knowledge comes first...so dont go by the crap rumours and concentrate on studies..
