[quote=Anonymous]GenX person here. I am a lawyer very involved in hiring for my Federal government legal office. Of the things that have been mentioned here, I would not hire someone with a stretched earlobe piercing, because I’m squeamish and that makes me feel ill to see. Not a fan of septum piercings or tongue piercings for the same reason, but could overlook for the right candidate. Don’t care about hair coloring or tattoos or other piercings. Vocal fry is so incredibly grating, but we recently hired a 30 year old woman with both a terrible case of that plus statement-as-question-disorder. She’s excellent, so I’m training myself to deal. Mostly I look to avoid people who are smug or arrogant. I would not have thought to avoid this candidate type, but we once had an interviewee so confident that she would get the job that did the University of Arkansas hog call to wrap things up. I hope she landed somewhere good, but we were unsettled/ terrified. [/quote]
