There was a blog post "Adventure in the Low Status of Software Engineers" by Michael Church (apparently taken down now), basically if you're interviewing for "low status" positions you're assumed to be a fraud but for "high status" positions (VP-level) you're assumed to be a great candidate even if your resumes are almost identical in both cases.
