Hamed Ghoddusi in his Hot Cuppa blog talks about a new coming wave in Iranian labour market. He says a new wave of entering into the market by women in the next few years would be expected. Blogger adds this wave is the result of rapid increase of women’s share in the higher education system. Since 2003 the girls outperformed boys in the tough entrance exams of the universities. The last year statistics says that 65% of the new enrolment in the universities made by women.
