dc.abstract.enGender occupational minorities are individuals who deviate from gender-based occupational norms in their career choices: women in masculinized occupations and men in feminized occupations. Despite extensive research on some aspects of their experiences, few studies explore how men in feminized occupations and women in masculinized occupations define career success. The present qualitative analysis investigates two highly skilled groups of occupations who were chosen based on Bourdieu's (1998) practical principles of gender occupational segregation: IT/new technologies for women and childcare/education for men. I analyzed the interviewees’ definitions of career success and their experiences in achieving (or not achieving) career success within their occupational trajectories. Furthermore, my investigation delved into the factors influencing chances of achieving career success, particularly emphasizing the role of gender.
