N2 - Building on the chapter "Glass Ceilings, Sticky Floors, and Satisfaction: Rewards and Remuneration", this chapter examines whether there are gender differences in the effect of embeddedness on salaries. We first discuss relevant literature on creative intensity and embeddedness and introduce the Creative Trident model. The chapter then explores the potential for mismatch between education and occupation by looking at the creative intensity of employment and which graduates are entering creative or non-creative occupations. We also investigate the differences in the salaries of male and female graduates in general and, in relation to the Trident model, use longitudinal data to reflect on shifts in male and female graduate career trajectories, exploring possible national specificities and similarities in this context. The chapter concludes with reflection on the role that gender plays in accessing employment that represents the highest utilization of skillsets and in securing embedded creative jobs where knowledge and acquired skills are both utilized and financially rewarded.
