They still look at the most qualified people first (unless you fit into a special category).
CAL didn't have a TPIC requirement either. A lot of people got hired with lesser qualifications through their connections. And the rest networked and had good qualifications. All we can do is try our hardest. I can't Stand to listen to the folks that gripe about not being a woman or a minority. Tough break, now get ur butt out there and network and do stuff that looks good on a resume.
