That all rings of truth. HR overstate their abilities and interfere far too much. Over the years I've been told "if you hire, it's your risk", which turns into "I'm glad we picked Sam".
Also, if you're a woman, don't make a big deal about it. Saying "I'm a woman ..." Anything will almost certainly get you shown the door - this is a red light for "attitude". There are many indicators I see, people who talk about being manages during a technical interview, etc. all bad signs.
One: you'd be surprised how many women have been programmed with ad attitudes/entitlement. Makes me sad.

- asanagi 11y agoI hope you never work at my company either! No one gives a care what's between your legs. Do your damn job.

What if you were proud of the promotion to "manages" and you want to highlight the fact that you were given this promotion because of the level you were performing at? Is it not a sign of a quality candidate? I feel like you just watched last week's episode of Silicon Valley and internalized it.
