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

    The keyword is ‘qualified’. Lots of people looking for jobs with little to no skills or relevant education.

      I doubt foreigners got here (likely on a work visa) with no skills or education. To get a work visa, don’t you have to have a job lined up? There’s their experience/skills. Myself and a lot of the class I graduated with in CS are getting hundreds of rejections despite having relevant education (and experience in many cases). With the hundreds of thousands laid off from tech in the last year there is absolutely not enough openings for everyone with skills and relevant education.
