    Whats the deal with lack of info regarding appearance standards for hire?

    Seen this "comply with appearance standards" in several job postings , but I cannot find anywhere what these standards are.

    Any help here?

    don't show up at the interview with a pony tail, 3 day growth, shorts and flip flops.

    don't drag your knuckles on the ground when walking, and keep drooling to a minimum.

    I was looking more along the lines of facial hair, earrings, that sort of stuff.

    Cant say I recall seeing anyone(male) in brown with either?

    Ok.... no tatoo's showing , no bone in your nose, no plates in your lips, nothing. And nothing in the ears either. Clean and crisp haircut and again no cologne.

    Just really boils down to you wanting the job........

    Good luck....
