What position is it for?

If it's for, say, kindergarten teacher, I'd almost every time go against the nudey picture person because if I can find it, parents can find it and raise a fit.

In other circumstances, I'll see if there's any other differences during the interviewing process, and, being honest, I'll likely go for the hotty if there's no reason to believe that picture might be damaging to my employer/company.

That last part left off "if everything is still pretty equal."

@Celtic -- I said *all* things being equal. Skills, personality, etc....the *only* difference is the knowledge of the photo.

Because....thing is....this is potentially *very* real problem for employees/employers...having some 10 year old picture haunt a candidate when they were younger and stupid....because LOTS of people were young and stupid in college BEFORE phones with cameras. So - why should today's youth be punished for being...HUMAN...

Sacred makes a great point in terms of determine nature of positions and possible impact of exposure....teacher...OUT. Marketing firm...maybe a bonus to the company. Cheerleader? IN!!!!

I'd to disregard the photo. Everyone makes stupid mistakes when they're young.

'If it's for, say, kindergarten teacher, I'd almost every time go against the nudey picture person because if I can find it, parents can find it and raise a fit.'

that depends, some company hiring practices now request that the interviewee hands over their facebook password so they can look at your personal info without needing to do lots of investigative work, not something the parents will necessarily have access to.

Holy Shit. Is that not a violation of your personal privacy?

oh wait, as mentioned elsewhere... now i look dumb but this was the first thread i looked at today...

There's been several news articles about besides the one I posted for comment.

@zultar, no its not I suppose. But it hasn't exactly been taken to court. Its becoming more and more common in the business world

Yeah that depends on the job.

In certain jobs it shouldn't have anything to do with anything so I would just flip a coin if they really equals. I doubt they would actually be though you can usually find some credential that differentiates people even if only slightly.

LIKE RACE MUAHAHAHA

o sorry wrong thread

OK Thucy....hot black chick, hot white chick, hot asian chick and hot spanish chick and Hot <choose your preferenc> all have equal credentials AND a nude photo. Which one do you hire?!?!?

How many...openings are we talkin' about here?

I couldn't resist.

@gold -- more common in the world WHERE? What's your source for this rumor? I haven't seen it, nor has any real live human being that I've ever talked to despite internet and media hype. I just don't buy the story...

Well...let's say a threesome, just to make it intersting...

Ok I have to ask what is it about threesomes that guys like.. I really don't understand it.

It's all about options.

But in reality, I've had more women that I've dated request threesomes of the two guys variety (and even in some cases the two girls variety) than I've requested threesomes. Dunno, maybe I'm just wired strange.

Still don't get it. Doesn't someone always get left out?

Not if you're doing it right.

You know no desire to even try. I'm quite happy being monogamous.

That's the important part.

Three ways have nothing to do with marriage at the feasibility level.

Disagree.

Well even before we were married we were monogamous. I've been with my husband close to 10 years.

Oh wow so you're like Marshall and lily from how I met your mother

OK, did we really need to asterisk out the U?

Yah did we? I originally thought it was node photos.

@ava not sure on the reference. I don't watc much tv. But if you mean dated for forever then got married then yes.
