In fact, many companies require applicants to attach their photo to their resume just to be considered for the position.
Korean resumés.
This has resulted in several applicants being turned down, simply because their looks didn’t meet the company’s standards.
President Moon Jae In is hoping to change that around by implementing a “blind hiring” policy in the public sector.
This means an applicant’s skills and character are considered for the job rather than their looks, personal connections, or educational background.
Good job to him, thats insane to have to attach a photo to a resumé.
