If you want the job send in a picture of a Mexican.

I don't think so, unless you are going to be acting with the restaurant.

It's pretty shaky. Could be a way to screen people that's not legal. For example, it's illegal to code applications for race - requiring a picture to be attached would do that.


my avatar's hot!
Yes.

Sadly no, not in America. In Canada I do believe it is illegal.

Yes. As long as it is not used to identify race or creed.

They also require photos for driver licenses, passports, military ID cards, VA ID cards, many school ID cards, gaming licenses, professional licenses, etc. One of the biggest problems is identity theft and the photographs help prevent that.
