Dating as Job Hunting

We had a great speaker from Paradigm IQ come to work and speak about unconscious bias.

One of the things she said was that, on average, a woman will only apply to a job if she meets 100% of the qualifications but a man will apply if he meets 60% of the qualifications.

All of a sudden, while I flip through OKC, this fact came back to me.

I should reach out to guys who I might not match 100%.... they'll message me if they think they meet 60% of what I say.... and yea, it's good to list lots of "requirements" (as someone who dates men).  The more I list, the more things they'll need to match to hit 60%.....
