The Grace Hopper Celebration is meant to unite women in tech. This year droves of men came looking for jobs.

I like how this comment section highlights why a job fair specifically not for cis men is needed lol

It's so fucking cringe. I work in tech, I see how weirdly women get treated and I see their unusually high turnover rate. Early on I was told "women don't last long here" and it was very true, that woman in particular quit to do freelance work (good for her). Why can't women have a job fair? Men don't fucking need one, NEARLY ALL of the other tech job fairs are dominated by men.
