Start-up Speed Dating

From SystersWiki

I'm a software developer. When I finished my master degree, I was looking for a job. There was an event called "startup speed dating". All the startups were explaining what they do and what they look for. I thought this was a professional event. There was one company that showed a slide of a woman in underwear, and they said... We're looking for people that know PHP and look like this! If you look like this: please come talk to us.

I considered to talk with them, but I didn't want to spend my time with that. I'd rather spend time actually looking for a job. I still remember how I felt when I saw that. It was in Switzerland at a famous university...
