«As an app developer, you have to be able to think logically above all. And be fit in English.» Lorena is in her first year of training at Swiss Re. It's not a man's job, but women are still outnumbered. She gets on well with the male developers and doesn't feel excluded. «I would like to be a mentor and senior mentor to young women. That way I could pass on tricks on how to get on better with the boys. I think that would be cool».
