competition for a place in reality

assalamualaikummmm~~

kalau tak jawab dosa, kalau jawab sayannnnngggg~~

ok whatever. hehe!


now i have something a bit serious i need your opinions about.
i received a message in facebook from a lovely girl whose having problems finding a job as a clerk. she said that there are companies looking for malay ladies who preferably, are not wearing scarves.

i don't know what to make of this, and i don't know how many companies we're talking about. but the fact that there are companies who have preference such as "chinese female only" or "malay female but don't wear tudung pleaseeee" or something like that, makes it seem like there's sooo many limitation to get a job nowadays.

lagi lagi when the college and university intakes are only in September. isn't it going to be more competitive to get a job? when every student are on holiday at the same time, and enters college/uni at the same time. even entering college/uni will be more competitive!

if there are such preferences (as i mentioned earlier), then chances are slimmer! to land a clerk's job pun you have to satisfy the 'appearance' criteria, then how?
if the person have qualifications and the qualities to work, then why should appearance matter? whether the person wear scarf or not, if she/he can perform at their job, isn't that good?

a successful company should have brains to support it, not looks.

so what do you think?
i admit, i was not aware of this because alhamdulillah in my experience of applying for jobs, i didn't encounter such..ummm.. what is it ek? prejudice?
well, you get what i'm trying to say kan?

let me know! thank you lovelies!!! =D
