The fuck?
This is a joke right? I would have thought development would be the one sector unaffected by look / image etc.

I would have thought development would be the one sector unaffected by look / image etc. I know this guy who used to screen models at a Hollywood studio. Now he works as a recruiter in a tech company (he met a VP at stripclub who got him in), what do you think he does? They are still same people! They look for same signals. They give it weird names like vibes / cultural fit or whatever.
