Whats wrong with showing age?

As an employer u would want to know the age coz its a big factor for consideration.

Lets say for a manager post, would u want someone that is 19/20 years old?
Or a frontdesk/receptionist that is 40 years old?

That's age discrimination. If there's a lawyer determined enough then you might find yourself at the receiving end of a lawsuit.

If you want to discriminate and only hire young pretty ladies for your front desk, make it more discrete lah, don't put it on paper biggrin.gif

Like it or not, its a competitive and cruel world out there.

Discriminate or not, it just doesn't make sense to hire a 50-yr-o man to carry my goods and a 19 year old kid to be a branch manager.

Young or not, people tends to hired a decent looking female to be the front desk.

Like MAS stewardess, not only they have to be in certain age group, they must have a proper shape too.
