Should A Woman Fake Being Single To Get A Job?
It's articles like "When You Land The Job Interview, Should The Ring Come Off?" in the Wall Street Journal On Line that makes me turn to stone. The author talks about the double standards faced by women when applying for the associate position; the face of marriage and parenthood wears better on men then women in the legal job interviewing process because of inherent prejudices.
What piqued my interest was the comments elicited from an anonymous legal head hunter for large firms who gives an insider's view of employer prejudices and proves it still runs rampant and appears to be anti-woman, marriage and child-rearing.
Why is this on my blog? Could there ever be a better reason to go solo?
