Having a recommendation doesn't guarantee you anything. You are using anecdotal evidence from your limited experience to council other women which could torpedo their recruitments. Like ASTalumna06 said, without recs, you might have had no invitations. There are many organizations which REQUIRE a recommendation or use the lack of a recommendation as an easy cut for the first round. Sorry you were released despite having recommendations, but there's no use telling others that they aren't needed.
