This is consistent with what I've experienced hiring newer / junior devs. However, because we didn't have any female developers, we were more likely to offer interviews to females who sent in resumes, but they were asked the same questions we asked everyone else.

And did you judge them with the same standards? Give them the same tasks and same support as their male counterparts?

Who's "them" in this case?

I think it's important to respect everyone. Part of respect is fair treatment.
