Great question. Following not apply exactly to OP, but for female or HNers or anyone who writes job descriptions and values diversity... We recently discovered this is one of those subtle things that can trip-up diverse hiring. Came up as one of the biggest revelations in a recent diversity and inclusion workshop at my company. A senior-level man was explaining how we would _never_ apply to a job where he had all the qualifications, because to him that "would just be a lateral move" what would he gain or learn from this new role? At which point several women were astonished to hear this as it had apparently never something they would have considered to apply for a job they weren't fully confident they had 100% of the qualifications.
