Aren't we now taking this a bit too far?

If I had two equal candidates for a job, I would choose the one who better dressed the part. If there was only one suitable applicant, then she would get the job. Yes, there are sloppy people who get jobs every day, but they are paid less and have less opportunity for growth. Unless of course they are geniuses and the job is locked away at corporate with little public exposure.
Plenty of college applicants are passed up for being too sexy or dressing like they are going to a night club instead of a job interview! Same goes for girls wearing summer fashion in the winter and fall.
Sorority recruitment has always been compared to a job interview. Girls need to put their best foot forward. You would have serious questions if a girls came into your house on first round looking like she is dressed for the bars. Wouldn't you?
First impressions are critical!
