Web Design
Check out your local chapter of Webgrrls, an association of
women working
in web/design fields. Often local chapters have meetings where
young women
are invited to hear stories of what it's like working in the
field and have
opportunities for internships and job shadows. They also maintain
a job
bank for members. http://www.webgrrls.com/
