“My experience was pretty bad getting hired on,” another wrote. “I had interviews at two different locations and one didn’t even hesitate to tell me no as soon as I walked in.”

“The one thing I hated the most was having to stand in front of my male manager and have him tell me if I was I guess good enough to hit the floor,” a third revealed.

“If my makeup was right, if I had enough blush on, if my pantyhose were good enough, like having a man look me up and down to tell me if I was good enough,” she added.

Although the company does not mention a weight limit for its hiring process, Hooters girls are clearly known for their distinctive looks.
