Have you (generic) considered that the wording of the job applications
may be discouraging female candidates from applying?

I suspect it's got a lot to do with the type of work but I truly wish there were more applications for network engineering (or even just technical) roles by women. In the US/EU we had a few, but in Australia out of about 300 applications in the last couple of years for roles locally I have yet to see one. I know there are a few of them out there, but it's very very rare.
