Not quite; you can see several exceptions to this in the table in the article.
The key points of the partitioned data were:
No department was significantly biased against women.
Most departments had a statistically significant bias towards women.
It's interesting to note that the departments that ARE biased towards men have more female applicants; I wonder if being in a minority group for that department is an even more important confounding factor.
