This research provides insights to the career changes and challenges women have experienced due to the Covid-19 pandemic. This research builds on recent work by Hite and McDonald (2020) who employ career shock, career resilience and sustainable career theory to explore how individual and contextual factors have impacted careers amidst Covid-19. In additional to this practical strategies are identified to help overcome the career challenges women professionals are facing. A qualitative case study methodology was used, involving 24 semi-structured interviews with professional women from a range of industries in Australia. Career changes and challenges included, changes to work processes (i.e. technology, working from home), work overload, lack of time, stress, uncertainty, financial pressures and additional responsibilities (i.e homeschooling). Practical strategies to overcome challenges include the development of new skills and knowledge, embracing new opportunities, building resilience to change, taking time to reflect and building social networks.
