I was laid off from a Big Three Accounting firm several years ago (along with about 20,000 other people) and they sent all the laid-off folks to a 5-day resume prep/interview readiness workshop.<BR/><BR/>At the end of the workshop, I asked the counselor, "What else should I do to increase my chances of getting a job?" and she said, "Cut your hair shorter and get your eyebrows waxed." She also mentioned makeup and jewelry. My hair at the time was chin-length.Liz Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09469435277058701080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11982554.post-1134500252211437922005-12-13T13:57:00.000-05:002005-12-13T13:57:00.000-05:00A career counselor advised you to wax your eyebrow...A career counselor advised you to wax your eyebrows???
