Women Of LOIS

You Have Already Done The Hard Part.

Every room you have walked into and changed. Every judgement you made when the safe answer was sitting right there. Every year of knowing which problem is the real one before anybody else in the meeting does.

That is what LOIS puts in front of a business. Not a résumé of where you have been — the whole of what you are now.

Come In See What Is Open

What It Costs You

Not A Dollar. Not Ever.

Every part of LOIS is open to every woman here — the roles, the Career Studio, your Portrait, writing to an employer and hearing back. The businesses pay to be in this room. You never do, and there is no version of LOIS in which that changes.

What Is Here

Four Rooms, And You Own All Of Them.

Roles That Say What They Pay

Every role on LOIS carries the money on the face of the card. It is a condition of being here, so you decide whether to spend an evening on a business before you spend it.

The Career Studio

Seven questions, and none of them asks you to justify a gap, a decision or a year. You are asked what you are brilliant at, and what a room is like once you are in it.

Your Portrait

What comes out of the Studio, in your own words, changed by you whenever you want. It is what a business reads — everything that makes you, you.

A Way To Write Back

An employer writes to you here, and you answer here. Your address stays yours until you decide to hand it over.

If You Come In

Four Things, And The First One Takes A Minute.

You Come In

Your name and an address to reach you at. No document to upload, no work history to reconstruct, nothing to prove. About a minute.

You Sit For The Career Studio

Whichever of the two ways below suits you today. Fifteen minutes, one question at a time, and every answer stays closed until you open it.

Your Portrait Is Yours

What comes out, in your own words. You change it, add to it or take it down whenever you want, and it is what a business actually reads.

A Business Writes To You

Here, on LOIS. You answer here too, and your own address stays yours until you decide to hand it over.

The Career Studio

Two Ways In. Take The One You Want Today.

Some women could tell you in one sentence what they are brilliant at. Some know it is in there and have never been asked to put words to it. Both of those are a woman worth hiring, and they need different questions.

For the woman who could say it in one sentence You Already Know You know exactly what you are brilliant at and you have known for years. Five questions, asked plainly, and nobody makes you work up to it. For the woman who knows it is in there somewhere Help Me Find The Words Six questions, and not one of them asks you to declare anything. A Monday morning, an afternoon you lose, a phone ringing years later — and it arrives while you are describing something else.

Change your mind halfway and the other road is one press away. Answer all eleven if you want to. Nothing here is closed off.

How It Goes

Fifteen Minutes That Are Entirely Yours.

One question on the screen at a time, in your own time, and every answer stays closed until you open it. Leave it halfway and it will be exactly where you left it.

There is a box for your own words on every question, because the best answer is rarely on anybody else's list.

The Door Stays At Fifty

Fifty,
Rather Than
Fifty-Five.

Chosen deliberately, and chosen early — five years before the point where the data says it gets hard. Coming in before the fall is the whole idea.

What Happens Next

A Business Reads You, Then Writes To You.

She Is Found.

She Is Asked Properly.

She Decides.

And Then

This Is How It Travels

You are found. You are paid what the work is worth. What you earn is yours, and so is every choice that comes after it.

Imagine the woman beside you doing the same. And the one after her. Imagine a whole street of them, in one suburb, in one year.

When women have economic power, we change the world.
