This year droves of men came looking for jobs.

You know, reading this part, I was gonna say, people look for jobs because they need work, so they can pay their bill and pay off their student loans. I was gonna say that there's a possibility that this is driven by economic misery more than sexism. But then I read the article and I got to this part:

it’s a major networking opportunity for aspiring tech workers. In-person admission costs between $649 and around $1,300.

57% of Americans has less than 1000 USD in savings. These fellas were willing to toss somewhere between 649-1300 bucks down the toilet for this.
