"Which profession suits me and what are my strengths?" Questions that increasingly come into focus for many students during the career orientation phase. However, in order to keep track of the multitude of training professions and courses of study, and to find the right vocation regardless of social norms, it is necessary to gain insights into the most diverse professional worlds.

The underrepresentation of women in the so-called MINT* professions illustrates the close connection between career choice and traditional role models. The intention of the nationwide Girls' Day action day ties in precisely with this problem: In the past 20 years, familiarization days in companies have allowed more than 1.9 million schoolgirls to gain insights into scientific and technical professions.

Coming from the male-dominated world of mechanical and plant engineering, the family-owned company DORNIER also attaches great importance to the Girls' Future Day and this year is offering a digital service to broaden the spectrum of career choices. "The young girls often do not yet know how gifted they are - together we want to explore the fascination of technology", says Martin Kaeß, Head of Professional Training at Lindauer DORNIER GmbH.
