Why it worked

This post likely performed well due to its relatable and humorous take on societal perceptions of certain professions, particularly within the tech industry. The "Aren't we all?" reveal plays on a common trope and creates a satisfying punchline.

Summary

The first slide features a woman with text overlay asking if someone fumbled by not recognizing a software engineer. The second slide shows a screenshot of a LinkedIn profile indicating "Software Engineer" at Microsoft, with the text "Aren't we all?" overlayed.

Had to hop on the trend. Ok so one time my friend was telling me about how she met a guy at a bar and was impressed by the fact that he was a software engineer at a FAANG company and to be honest, I felt like reece witherspoon being like “what, like it’s hard”😅 #womenintech #softwareengineer #compsci #computerscience #csmajor #softwaredeveloper
