Hi Susanne,
As an IT manager for the past 10 plus years I'm more of managing people now instead of a techie, although I still consider myself one. I have no doubt in my mind that your knowledge can blow me out of the water! I've only interviewed a small number of women for any jobs I've had opened and would gladly throw them in the mix if they have the skills I'm looking for! But with the location I work in I'm lucky to find anybody that is qualified. Keep up the good work! There are always bad with the good out there.
