Help wanted: No ugly applicants, please

If you want only beautiful people working for you, now there's a website that will help you weed out any unattractive riffraff.

BeautifulPeople.com, the online dating site that only permits attractive people to sign up, now has an offshoot site for employers. Only 20 per cent make it through the 48-hour vetting process by members of the opposite sex to become BeautifulPeople.com members. The rest of us? Well, we are the 80 per cent.

BeautifulPeople.com tells Mashable that its new service is aimed at employers who want to hire "good-looking staff." The service will offer individuals and companies access to its 75,000 attractive members.

"An honest employer will tell you that it pays to hire good-looking staff," said Greg Hodge, managing director of BeautifulPeople.com, in a statement. "Attractive people tend to make a better first impression on clients, win more business and earn more."
