Eye candy is always welcome. Especially if it comes with a little peekaboo.

I've heard men say otherwise, but I strongly believe that a professional business woman needs to curtail the sexy stuff. A well-fitting suit, beautiful shoes, and not alot of skin on a professional woman is preferred.

The receptionist can show her boobs all she wants, and she'll stay in the $30,000 slot.

Well, I don't make the hiring rules around here, but in my company physical attractiveness works against female candidates for employment. Seems the old school types who run the firm think attractive women are too much of a distraction to male employees, regardless of how they are dressed. They don't get hired, regardless of qualifications, and I can't imagine ours is the only company that thinks that way.

Whether an old fogey or a resentful feminist is in charge of HR, it would seem wise for a young woman to downplay her looks as much as possible when seeking employment. Too many people find her threatening.

Pictures?

I find women dressed in business suits or blazers to be sexy in and of itself. Although some guys find them intimidating.

The study points out only what superficial judgements can be made based on first appearances. Competence and professionalism come out in the long run, regardless of attire choices. When meeting with clients/customers, dress professionally (this goes for men, too), otherwise dress however you want, as long as you fit within the company's dress code.

I am going to need to see many, many, many example pictures before I can make a judgement.
