Key West Position

They don't allow ugly in the Keys? I guess there is no law against ugly discrimination?

Next you will want huge TaTa's as a listed requirement for the job. That is not mentioned either.

I'm quite sure requesting a photo for this type of position is illegal. Feel free to be sued if you wish, but you are opening yourself up to all kinds of discrimination lawsuits if you don't interview someone who meets your very vague qualifications.

You are probably right. The whole OP is somewhat strange!

I wonder if it is this place?

I actually found this site a few weeks ago because I'm interested in a diving internship. Based on the site, the program sounds fantastic. I contacted them both via phone and email and never received a response. I thought the picture requirement was weird... (no I didn't send one).

In some foreign countries a passport size photograph usually accompanies a resume. Its the norm! I do not understand the need for it and yes it could serve as the basis for discrimination over factors the individual has no control over.

I think it is fairly common for a lot of jobs throughout the world to ask for a resume with photo. I am not saying this one went about it in the right way, but it's not uncommon.

I could understand that for a modeling/acting position. But for a dive instructor and shop worker?

come on... doesn't that sound creepy to you ?


I bet the guy sits outside kids playgrounds with a van with "Free Candy" written on the side of it.

Actually, I have never heard of any resort type position (live aboard dive boats included) that DID NOT request a photo with the resume. Trust me, it happens.

Here in the states having a photo in your resume is a recipe for a 'lawsuit' but it's quite common and actually encouraged and demanded in most parts of the world, I know this from experience as I just finished a job in SE Asia where a photo was required. I'm not condoning any of this, but just saying this is the way it is!

 

[cavemon]

Why do you keep posting that without any info. WTF

 

[scuba=dude]

I don't see what the big deal is about giving this guy your photo..... here's mine :mooner:
