RE: Female Geek rant

When I was more Junior, I had a few times when people were recommending me for opportunities. In both physics and comp sci schools, I got hired through my professors, and they just offered, I didn't ask for help. Both jobs didn't last long for unrelated reasons, very unlucky. Same thing with employers.

But currently, after I've got work accomplishments and go "male" way listing my skills (which are very in demand, and lacking experienced people), it sounds like "taking somebody with skills", not "giving an opportunity". And it doesn't work. What kind of a social game am I supposed to play here?
