9. Implications
• Using positive stereotypes to your advantage…
– Show hiring managers you are independent and
driven
– Use the fact that you are tech savvy in your favor
• Turning negative stereotypes into advantages…
– Be open to “paying your dues”
– Seem confident, not arrogant
– Do not look for constant feedback, but be open to
constructive criticism
