Many of those points are blessedly falling by the wayside as companies move online. I know my current job did, as that means less effort for job seekers and less chance for the employers to let these biases creep in (well, you have to have good spelling, at least). Then you only have to be on your best behavior for the interview.

For my random anecdote, it seems like i'm finally starting to get the hang of this networking thing. It's just a lot more involved than I was able to be back when i was still living with my parents, before i moved out for grad school. Still got a ways to go, but it doesn't seem quite so mysterious or impenetrable anymore.
