Do you think beauty has something to do with gettin hired?

Does being pretty gives you a advantage of getting hired at a job over someone who is butt ugly?...and lets say both women have a pretty good education and job history.Do you think beauty has something to do with gettin hired?
It depends somewhat on the situation, but generally looking good opens a lot of doors. People respect you more, and frankly are more interested in having you on their team. Many studies have shown this.





Possible exception: If the decision maker is a woman, then they might hesitate to hire someone that looks a lot better than they do. But, I don't think this happens often. Even plain looking women usually favor good looking women.





In terms of beauty, there is a difference between looking really good in a business appropriate way, versus looking trashy or trying to hard to be sexy. I would not hire someone that looked a bit trashy. I would question if they are serious about the job and understand what is appropriate at work.





The important thing to remember is, you have a lot of control over how good you look. Most ';butt ugly'; people could look a lot better. Wear neat, good looking, stylish - but not vampy clothes. Women, use the right amount of makeup that makes you look good, but does not make you look made up. Women and men, spend a little bit of money to get your hair looking good.





Finally, you are a unique wonderful valuable person committed to doing a great job. With that spirit of confidence you will look a whole lot better.





Also, looks will be a tie breaker if two candidates have almost the same qualifications. But, if you speak well (with quiet confidence) and listen well, and demonstrate a motivated attitude, that will overshadow the impact of looks.Do you think beauty has something to do with gettin hired?
yes. esp. if the interviewer is single and looking!
It depends highly on the employer. But all I can say is that their chances of getting a job is higher if compare with those who are butt ugly.
depends on the employer.. and the type of job your doing.. but in all. i would have to say that yes sex appeal is a essence these days in most professions. and its not just education either.. ts your personality.. you could be as smart as a Nobel prize winner.. but you could be boring like a paper bag. that's why they have interviews. and yes. to see what you look like also.





there are alot of factors you have to look at.. i just named a few of them
It depends on who is doing the hiring.
Yes. But being pretty has a disadvantage as well. Ugly girls get more respect from other girls than pretty ones becuase they don't cause a competative feeling in the other girls. My experience with men and being a pretty girl is that a group of men will keep a pretty girl around not because they think shes all that smart, they'll keep her around for something beautiful to look at. The downside to it is that the only thing she ever got credit for is her looks and not her mind. Pretty girls (the ones that are shy) are the loneliest people you'll ever meet.
you are HOT, ill hire you lady.





dondie, jus kiddin.
Personality is something that they go by more then beauty.
