Legal Question in Discrimination Law in Maryland

Applied for a job with about twice the required experience. After a week request an update on the status of the application received a reply saying: ��unfortunately you do not possess the financial services industry experience this position requires.�

Then I replied reiterating my relevant experience and got no reply.

The hiring officer and 4 of the other 6 employees are female. The only male is the president of the company.

So my question actually questions are this: What to do next? Contact the president for an explanation? Is there a possible of Gender Discrimination in this instance? If so, is it worth pursuing legal action? Considering court costs and legal fees?
