But today's women professionals believe that if you have the hunger and determination to run through the brick wall, there is nothing that can stop you from achieving zenith. Especially the recruitment industry in the recent years has seen a dramatic shift in mindset. The sector has moved away from the usual `male-dominated' tag to being predominantly led by women professionals.
