Men are more likely to hire pretty girls?

[Anonymous]

Is it usually true - that if a manager of a small store is a woman, they are likely to hire an average looking or ugly girl, whereas men are more likely to hire pretty girls?

Thanks!

I think for the female manager, she'd be more likely to consider anyone while the male manager would be more likely to consider the pretty girl (or people in general) first. I only said MORE LIKELY, so it's not a set in stone kind of thing just a probability kind of thing.

However, depending on what the business is, then attractive people get precedent. Like a higher end sit-down restaurant will hire a lot of pretty/attractive people just to go with the atmosphere and make for better eye candy. It's the tough reality, but it's the reality nonetheless.

yeah, mainly it's easier for girls to get an entry-level job than it is for guys, jobs that do not require college-education, if the hiring manager is male or the human resouces department is male dominant, of course they are going to hire pretty girls even if she has a crappy resume, inexperienced, was fired from a previous job, because they see, view the girls as "Bait" to attract and lure customers, more customers, more money, that's why buisnesses exist for, to make money.

Ehat if the hiring manager is a woman?

[moviedude714]

I forgot to say that too, I think so, because life, society, culture, generally have more sympathy for girls than they do for guys, like both guys and girls have more sympathy girls, and girls are more emotional, so more nurturing, so they have like this "look after eachother" attitude towards their own sex(girls)

But wouldn't jealousy cause women not to hire pretty girls? Especially older women?

[moviedude714]

possibly, but yeah, overall, I'd say women, girls have it easier in the social part of life, they have social advantages over guys

How about a woman hiring a good looking guy? Hot guys being around are really good for business too. Search the web for highest earning actors. They're all men, and make 3 times more than the highest earning female actors.
Women naturally feel insecure about other pretty looking women. It's an instinctive battle to get the top guy, whether one actually exists in the scenario or not. As a mildly good looking girl, I have had a better chance finding best friends among good looking girls than otherwise. It's just female jealousy.

if it's a store like retail or a waitress job or bar tender, then yeah, they would rather hire a cute girl

Regardless of the manager's gender?

I thought that was common sense, of course its true.

[Shaun]

Any smart department store manager, regardless of gender, will hire a pretty girl to work the floor. Sex sells.

[Confused614]

Agreed. In a job that doesn't have any real requirements like a retail job. Hiring a pretty girl would be in the best interest of the store.
