@graciegato that guy who interviewed you is not a healthy person. He is also likely sexist or in a state of having cynicism toward women due to going through a divorce.
However, yes, I believe he may have been making an advance toward you and the backhanded compliment betrays an angry and simple mind.
I hear this is common in tech. See #jfrog for an example of toxic workplaces in #tech .
The damage they did to my #family is a prime example of #toxic behavior in the #workplace aimed at #women.
Sometimes #women help male #sexists by being flying monkeys for them.
Be careful and guard your #soul.
The patriarchy even has its effects on the #woman led field of #socialwork.
That said, you are not alone.
