About Adela Mehic-Dzanic
My name is Adela Mehic-Dzanic, 10 years ago I moved to Vienna with my husband Zlatko to build a new life and career in IT together. We both had the vision to use our knowledge and energy in the technology sector and to help shape the future.
We started from scratch in Vienna. We had no network (no contacts), no jobs and we only learnt German in Vienna. Exciting, isn't it!
Unfortunately, I didn't learn German at grammar school in Bosnia and Herzegovina and I really had no idea how long it would take for me to be able to conduct my first job interviews in German.
I realised from the beginning that the language is essential to build a life and career here. My aim is to show other women the many facets of the tech and IT world. I want to be a role model for women, take away the fears and reservations that surround technical professions and inspire them to pursue a career in IT like I did.
