Good Looking

Seeing ads like this one always cracks me up. I don’t see so many specifying “must be under 30 years old” any more, but evidently, it is not politically incorrect here to specify that they must look good. 😉 It also cracks me up that companies are allowed to specify nationalities – like wouldn’t you think we could all work together? But it isn’t so – companies tend to have a Philipino staff OR an Indian staff, and rarely both.

  1. Intlxpatr ;

    It is terrible ,this practice is allowed to go on , absolute discrimination . Worse than this advertising for Certain nationalities only and excluding the locals from the Jobs .No writers or government body or non profit organization tackled this type of discrimination ?!
