I'm already employed and studying at uni but am hoping to pick up extra work throughout the summer holidays. The position I'm applying for is bar work- pouring drinks etc. I've read a few answers to other similar questions, but generally for bar work I've found places like their girls to be attractive, so I thought it wouldnt be a bad idea to include a head shot. So photo or not? What do you think?

Also, I'm from Australia. It seems like Americans reeeeally dont do the photo thing? Its quite common in Aus so any Aussies willing to answer please do so!

I'd say due to the nature of the job, sending a head shot couldn't hurt your chances but improve them. Especially if you're easy on the eyes : ) You're applying for a position that is customer service related and also sales related. It's all about presentation and good looks sell it's a fact!

I suggest that you include a photo in resumes sent to
potential jobs where appearance would be a factor
in the selection.
Make sure that the photo was taken a professional
( or at least an experienced ) photographer.

Normally I'd say no to a photo on a resume, but for bar work would probably be OK.
