Great questions! While there are certainly other underrepresented groups - including women, the LGBTQ community, veterans, individuals with disabilities, and other racial groups - we set out to be "everything for someone" rather than risk being "something for everyone." We hope that Jopwell's success with our initial target demographic allows us to expand the range of individuals whose lives we impact.
As an added note, Jopwell doesn't just serve the tech community. We are focused on connecting individuals with opportunities in a wide range of industries, including tech, healthcare, consulting, finance, and not-for-profits.

This is not an answer to your question, nor is this site the same as Jopwell, but it may still be interesting if you haven't seen it before: https://fairygodboss.com/
It's basically a company review site for women. While this won't help women get matched with a new role, it may help them avoid toxic work environments, or target positive ones.
Thanks.
