I think physical attractiveness does play a part in getting hired, or hiring someone. Many companies use attractive individuals to draw in attention and hopefully bring in customers. But I think for some companies they use physical attractiveness to make most of the money such as Hooters. Most of the males go there to watch sports and have a beer, and obviously look at the women. “An employer can no longer seek out preferred individuals based on non-job-related factors such as age, gender, or physical attractiveness” (Human Resource Management, Page 104). Even though this is against the law, I still believe companies do this to make more money. Tattoos have a factor if you’re trying to be hired. If I were interviewing someone who had visible tattoos I would tell him that they would have to be covered up. Most companies don’t want any tattoos showing, so you have to cover them no matter what.” An employer can no longer seek out preferred individuals based on non-job-related factors such as age, gender, or physical attractiveness.” (Human Resource Management, Page 78).  Scars and personal hygiene, on the other hand would be difficult for an employer. You obviously can’t tell someone to hide their personal scars, but for personal hygiene I think I’d be slightly easier. If there was a open job for more of a labor type workstation they would likely be hired. But if the job was for a front desk or a server at a restaurant, where they constantly interact with customers it’d but more difficult. “Race, religion, and national origin questions are always inappropriate, as is the practice of requiring that photographs of the candidate be submitted prior to or after an interview. Questions about physical traits like height and weight have been found to violate the law because they eliminated disproportionate”(Human Resource Management, Page 117).
