Impostor syndrome strikes men just as hard as women in technical interviews
It doesn't help that job ads are wanting "Top 3% only!" or "Only top 1% Ninja Rockstars need apply!".  Kind of reminds me of the market for singers or concert pianists, you absolutely need to be the best, even imperceptibly worse makes you unemployable.Should those of us who aren't top 5%/didn't go to a top school just find another industry, one where sub-perfect work doesn't actively make other people's jobs harder?
