Men and Women tend to have different views on the occupation they choose and want to choose. In this regard gender plays a wide role. Men are always expected to have better jobs and higher salary as compared to their female counterparts. But these gender roles are stereotypes that dictate the behaviours and actions of a person due to sex. Gender also influences individuals’ career experiences. Women face unique barriers in the work place, which in turn shapes their work and organizational experiences. These barriers were not only found in India but also in some of the most developed countries which have high Human Development Index. Although a number of steps have been taken in this direction, many policies are formed but gender equality is yet to be achieved. The research paper aims at identifying the effect of gender on career choice and to what extent these choices differ among male and female and also the problems faced by both men and women in this direction. It’s generally found that women face a number of problems from career choice, career adoption to career experiences. The paper also aims at finding solutions to such problems.
