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?

QUOTE(tishaban @ Apr 10 2008, 11:49 AM) 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  Like it or not, its a competitive and cruel world out there. QUOTE(rexis @ Apr 10 2008, 01:52 PM) 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. I heard crew cabin have to transfer to ground support like after some age limit.
