Then a couple of years passed, I quit StarCraft, Drewbie continued to dominate the 2v2 scene, and he joined the famous team Mousesports (Mouz) as their main 2v2 player. We decided weвЂ™d make the best StarCraft 2 team when the game came out. We were one of the best 2v2 teams at the time, and we were always really close friends. How did this ROOT Gaming team come about?ДЄ few years ago, when they announced StarCraft 2 was coming out, Andrew вЂњDrewbieвЂќ Moysey and I were playing 2v2 in StarCraft. I am 24 years old, and hold a degree as a Bachelor in Media Arts and Animation however, my only interest at this point in time is to play StarCraft 2 and succeed alongside my team, ROOT Gaming. My name is Paulo Vizcarra, and I go by the name вЂњROOTCatZвЂќ on Battle.Net. Unlike Fnatic and Evil Geniuses, ROOT Gaming currently is not sponsoredвЂ“meaning that its members have to fund their occupation by coaching others and winning tournaments. Paulo вЂњCatZвЂќ Vizcarra is the cofounder of Team ROOT Gaming, a newly established StarCraft 2 team that is home to a handful of high-level players like Kevin вЂњqxcвЂќ Riley and Andrew вЂњDrewbieвЂќ Moysey.

Nothing else really interested me, I never had anything else to do, and StarCraft was always there. Just because IвЂ™ve been playing it since I was seven years old. WhyвЂ™d you get into StarCraft over other competitive games? We do have sponsors (MSI, SteelSeries, Bigfoot Networks), though. Obviously itвЂ™s something special to me to play StarCraft professionally, but I donвЂ™t really feel like I could make a living off of it.

IвЂ™m still kinda just playing around, I guess.

Sometimes the male went first, sometimes the female went first. Made a fake resume, and responded to craigslist ads with both male and female names. So then I thought 'what about someone looking for working class jobs?' So I decided to focus on restaurants- servers, hosting, etc. Out of 100, my applications with a female name got 45 responses to interview The female resume was 650% more likely to get a callback. Out of 100, my applications with a male name got 7 responses for interview. I'd send it out with my real name, then a few days later (or few days before) with a female name. So I took my CV and changed the name to a female name. It's MUCH better being a woman So I did an experiment, I work in CS and decided to test what the gender bias is. 29.6K 1.3K sent 100 applications as a man and a woman.
